Diagnostics
If you notice that the temperature indicator needle is higher than on the average during driving, you should turn on the car heater at full capacity. After a short period of time pull over, stop the engine and touch the radiator. If it is warm, it means that the water pump of your vehicle is faulty. In case that the pump drive belt is of a temperature higher than normal, the fault is detected, this item is out of order. Another simple method of the water pump diagnosis: start the car's engine to idle and simultaneously pinch the upper radiator hose, and then let go. If you feel a push of coolant, then the pump is working. The easiest way to diagnose is to carefully examine the parking space. If the pavement has visible wet spots, it means that your car has faulty pump, and if the spots are green, then the coolant leaks.
