Help with my Honda CRV

[teej55]

Just arrived here in Manila and was told that my CR-V's been acting up lately. Actually, the temp goes up when in traffic and goes back to normal when car is in motion? I was told na baka daw sira na yun water pump? Could this be it? Also, laging nauubos yun coolant from the radiator and hindi nababawasan yun sa resevoir. Every 3 days daw dapat irefill yun radiator ng coolant. I checked the radiator and saw no leaks. Any help on what could the problem be? Thanks...TJ

waterpump leak or busted auxiliary fan

baka clogged yung radiator... have it checked also

i'd check the radiator muna. kung di maayos baka the constant fluctuation of the temp had warped the cylinder head na.

Just bring it to your prestigious Honda dealer. Ask them if it can be replaced under warranty. They may tell you it's part of normal wear & tear though.

prestigious Honda dealer

?????

Is this the "required" way to describe Honda now?

I guess so. Just walk into a Honda showroom. You'll see sales reps chattering with each other and then give you a glance (as if saying, "talk to us when you're ready to buy").

Hehe, didn't note the sarcasm in your first post :D

Alam mo naman mga sales people dito, chismis before service...

Had a similar experience with our CRV. It was due to a busted auxiliary fan in our case.
