Hi all,

My friend has a 206 petrol. His car works perfect until the temperature gauge reaches 90 C. After 90 C, the gauge shoots up to top (the red zone) and stop warning light keeps flashing. He waits about 20-25 seconds in idle and everything goes back to 80 C. Then he drives another 5 km. and the same story repeats. What do you guys think?

Thanks for all replies. I have just talked with my friend and told all what you guys have said. I guess he should have mentioned before but he already changed the temp. sensor, cooling fan sensor (I don't know what it is) and thermostat. He says he doesn't stop the car and continue his travel while the gauge is in the red zone and STOP light is flashing. After 20-25 secs. the gauge drops on its own to 80s C. After driving about 5 km., again the same error and the same story. By the way, as soon as the gauge jumps to the red zone, fan kicks in (fast one).

So the possiblities,
1. The water pump faulty,
2. Replaced brand new temp. sensor is faulty,

What can it be else?
