My Honda Accord Bullet Overheating by Nobody: 8:21pm On Mar 24, 2017
Pls assist me. My honda accord bullet will be 2 years in 2 months time.

I never changed a thing since I got the car.

I noticed for like a week now that the car which temperature guage never passes the middle portion now gets to 3/4 of the heat guage.

What can I do to address this.

I intend to take the car to a kazeem tomoro.

What can I look out for ? Please assist me @ gazzuzz et all.

FOllow the aadvice above, and also, are you short of coolant?

Check fans as stated above, clean radiator fins with water pressure, then flush radiator & replace coolant (not water).

Just like that? No concern about the causes except for the fans and radiator change?
No mention of a failed or failing thermostat... Or water pump defects.... A leaky cooling system... Be comprehensive next time oga Kazeem.

Good day boss, I gave the car to a new mech to service last week and that was when I started noticing the change I wanna ask is there a way I can check if the thermostat is bad. I suspect the mech might have changed my thermostat as my car over heats after about 10 mins of driving furthermore the guage never gets to the red zone cos as soon as the guage is almost passing the 3/4 level it miraculously drops to the middle again.

I suspect my thermostat may have been swapped.

open the thermostat housing, and check if the thermostat is there or not. If it is remove it and look for a new replacement if you cannot find a new replacement leave the chamber empty.

you are right sir.... just saw this and there is a slim possibility kazeem did not get to the original thermostat when the car came into naija. my apologies sir.


Meanwhile a thermostat is supposed to be replaced every 5years, no point leaving a 21year old thermostat in there.
