Over Heating by kneyo14(m): 2:33pm On Jun 09, 2018
Please I've experienced overheating while driving on 2 different occasions.

First time:- I found out through my the temperature gauge which rised above average which is very unusual; so I turned off the the AC and it by itself regulated.

Second time:- My temperature gauge was fine but I was alerted by drivers-by who noticed the heat and called my attention to it, turned off the AC and also the engine for a few minutes then headed out again, but without the AC and operations went smoothly.

But on both occasions my water level was fine, engine oil level was fibe and no leakage of coolant.

Please what do I need to look out for Maybe an underlying issue ...

perhaps your car isn't breathing well.. You could flush your radiator and check if there is difference..
