Duduglanza Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I had a civic radiator installed in my glanza.. normal sice is 42mm core i think but i ordered the 56mm.now the engine is not heating as it should and while cruising it stays few millimetres above the C (cold). it only reaches the exact temp if i let it idle for 10min or so .. should i worry or can i do something to arrange it without changing yhe radiator? maybe thermostat opens later or something?

MARC MOSS Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Another good way to tell if it's your thermostat is with the heater in the car, does it get warm quicker than normal? If so your stat maybe stuck open... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
