medyo kulang ang information na binigay mo para sa concern mo,but anyway may i ask you this,ano kotse mo? gas or diesel? did you check the coolant level? if not,.check mo muna coolant level,if ok,,then the problem of yopur concerned is either thermostat or temp sensor,,pls have somebody to check that.

I have surplus nissan terrano TD27T engine deisel, coolant level is okay, new thermostat, saan makikita yong temp sensor? city driving even traffic w/ aircon no problem, just this morning I went to hill top then I noticed the temp is going high, but the water is not boiling, mataas lang ang temp niya. thanks

How steep is the hill?

Sounds normal if you had a full load and were going up the hilll with AC too.

Yes w/ aircon, 5 person, I can compare like canon road in Baguio.

Then it's normal. You have a full load with 5 people and with AC. Engine is pushing the car up the incline with a full load and with the extra load of AC so it has to work more.

Hi there...I've a problem with my car...it's a 1994 nissan altima...mataas kasi un menor when i start the engine then medyo nababawasan when i turn on the a/c...the first mechanic that i consulted told me i had to change the cylinder head kasi daw may singaw na un makina...but when i consulted the mechanic from shell...sabi nya pwede pa daw un cylinder head...ano ba talaga?

try to have your idle up controller checked...based on the observation that when you turn on the AC, the rpm goes down.
