5-yr old Lynx Problem

may nakapagsabi sa akin an pag nag overheat daw ang tsikot dapat nababawasan ang water level sa radiator. is this true? kasi kung tama yan, yun lynx ng tita ko puno pa rin yun water level sa radiator nun tiningnan ko. last friday nagloko nanaman. the trip is only less than 40 kms. from Bacoor - Alabang - Bacoor. this time daw mas matagal yun inintay nila bago nag start ulit.

by the way i'll be bringing the car to Minerva Tyre this afternoon.

Good luck diagnosing.

If it didn't lose coolant, then it's definitely a sensor issue. Good luck!

was at Minerva Tyre Gallery Alabang last Monday and the mechanic there said that it's not a radiator problem. He suggested to me to bring it to casa for their computerized diagnostics. Will be bringing the car to the casa tomorrow. And by the way, tumirik nanaman kagabi yun lynx ng tita ko. Nagkakataon naman na di ako yun gumagamit pag tumitirik. Anyway, will keep you guys posted kung ano mangyayari tomorrow.

Irregardless of whether you have a radiator problem or not, you can still have sensor issues.

It's definitely either the ignition coils or the cam position sensor at this point. Let us know what you find out. Anyway, if you want to canvas prices for these parts, you can also call Fordland in Banawe... 02-732-1206... before you have these parts repaired, after you get the diagnosis from Ford. If the price difference isn't that great, you can probably just go ahead and have the job done there at the casa.
