How to quickly cool down an overheated engine?
According to the naav.ru portal, drivers wishing to leave the city during the summer often find themselves stuck in traffic for hours. In such conditions, the car engine can easily overheat. A DVC repair specialist explained what to do in this situation.

The problem of engine overheating mainly occurs in older cars. There are many reasons for this: lack of oil, coolant leakage, or malfunctions in the piston system. First and foremost, the engine needs to be cooled down quickly. To achieve this, it is recommended to turn on the heater at maximum heat. To reduce discomfort inside the cabin, the windows can be opened.

In this case, prolonged movement is not recommended — it is necessary to stop at the nearest convenient place to identify and resolve the issue.

The specialist emphasized that overheating the engine can lead to the warping of the cylinder head. This can result in coolant entering the system and very expensive repair work. To prevent such situations, it is recommended to regularly clean the radiator and have the cooling system checked by specialists.
