What are the causes of high temperature in BYD F3?
2 Answers
BYD F3 high temperature causes: 1. Insufficient water level: Long-term water circulation can cause gradual water loss, leading to insufficient water in the radiator, and failure to check and add water in time. This can easily cause the radiator to "boil over". 2. Radiator corrosion: If dirt, such as mud or rainwater, enters the radiator, it can easily cause corrosion. 3. Radiator leakage: Radiator leakage can obstruct water circulation, and in severe cases, cause the radiator to "boil over". 4. Abnormal operation of the thermostat's large and small circulation conversion. 5. Abnormal cooling fan speed: The cooling fan may be damaged or a short circuit may cause the fan to stop working, or the cooling fan may rotate very slowly.
I've been driving a BYD F3 for several years and have encountered situations where the engine temperature was too high. The most common reason is issues with the cooling system. For example, insufficient coolant or leaks. Once, while on the highway, the temperature suddenly spiked. I pulled over at a service area and found a small crack in the radiator causing a leak. I immediately added some emergency coolant to avoid engine seizure. Radiator blockage is another major cause. Dust buildup reduces cooling efficiency, especially during long summer trips when overheating is likely. The fan not working is also common—if the relay or circuit of the electric fan fails, the fan won't operate, and the temperature won't drop. A stuck thermostat is another issue; it controls coolant circulation, and if it fails, cooling becomes impossible. Additionally, a loose or broken water pump belt affects circulation efficiency. Whenever I encounter overheating, I stop the car, turn off the engine, and inspect it. Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure the system operates properly, making driving more worry-free.
