So I have done a little research on the site, but wanted an opinion on my specific symptoms. My car is leaking radiator fluid, although i cant tell from where at the moment. Car gets to running temp, radiator fans kick on, but car slowly starts overheating, going up until its turned off. When i...

I got home today and noticed my car was on hot which hasn't happend, so I popped the hood and didn't see a Crack or leak from my radiator. So I popped the cap on my radiator to check the level and didn't see any at all. The car was still hot so I kept it running and filled it up few seconds...

I have an 02 RSX base manual. I first had it overheat a couple of weeks ago and I didn't know where to start. The second time it overheated the hose that connects from the reservoir was disconnected causing some coolant to spill. Not a lot. The cooling fan is not turning on. I am not sure...

Edit: Resolved. It was the Water Pump. Check last post. So my car is climbing up into the 240's while idling / exiting the freeway, but it will drop to normal once i resume regular driving. Here is what i have seen: Fans turn ON if turn on the AC Still overheats if i have the AC running (...

I noticed my temp gauge go up to 3/4 or so after 10-15 mins of "spirited" driving, after i pulled into a parking lot. No redlining, but 6-7k rpms, with slow downs and accelerations. Temps were normal while driving, but as soon i entered the parking lot and slowed down, the gauge started to climb...

Two (possibly related?) problems, these started the other month and I can't seem to figure out what's wrong. Car is a '05 Type-S 89k miles. Whenever I start the car when the engine is cold, there would be a kinda loud whining/humming noise coming from somewhere in the engine bay. It can be...

I've read both post on overheating and the belt squeaking, but to no avail, I still cannot determine what is wrong. I spray wd40 behind the auto tensioner and sound seems to go away, but when I rev it squeaks louder at around 3-4 thousand rpm. The over heating issue, every time I park my car my...

Here's my dilemma. Hoping someone has some knowledge on this. I have a Wilwood BBK in the front with slotted and drilled. And stock brakes in the rear with slotted and drilled. All new pads. Summer driving only. Had to pull over on highway last year cause I thought something was on fire but it...
