Over heating

Asked by Michael Dec 29, 2018 at 05:30 PM about the 2005 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After a short time driving, the temp gauge runs
high (up to 200 in less than 10 min). Eventually it
redlined at 260, high coolant temp warning light
came on, I pulled over a few times to let the temp
drop. Little to no interior heat. My coolant level is
good, no leakage, what could the problem be...

Check the plastic hose connectors. The tend to crack and leak coolant under pressure causing the overjeating
