Overheating by DrAUTOCODE(op): 5:54am On Feb 12, 2019
The car is over heating and when i was trying to do some test to know what could possibly caused the overheating. The first thing I did was putting the radiator tester and after some time I discovered the PSI on the tester gauges has been reduced. I tried to check around to see if there is any place coolant is coming out around the engine... but there was no any but the coolant is definitely escaping to somewhere. That is the essence of using 21st century's diagnostics and repair equipments.

Were you able to discover leakage point?
If yes, what was the solution?

Yes. As the PSI value on the radiator tester is reducing, it is telling us that the water is entering somewhere. So we looked around the cooling system but there is no water dropping anywhere. Until when we checked very well and do some other test before we discovered the water is entering into the engine through Perforated part of the gasket. So we changed the gasket and the car come back good working condition
