Greetings to all
I have a little problem with my Pug 307 HDI sw 1.6 16v, year 2005.
The car is all fine while driving out of city traffic. However once in the city and in heavy traffic, and driving up the hill the engine temperature rises up to approximately 100'C - and that's when the fan kicks in. In case I stop (engine off) the car - when the temp. is around 100'C - and go about my business the coolant in the tank boils and leaves through the expansion bottle.
I took the car to mechanic and he first changed the thermostat, and then one of the sensors - the one just behind the front bumper. However, the car still boils the coolant. Don't know what steps to take now. Any suggestions or possible solutions?
Previously the car temp. would not rise up to 100'C, it would stay at 90'C.
