What Causes the Baojun 730 to Overheat?
2 Answers
1. The following are the reasons for the Baojun 730 overheating: 1. Lack of coolant: Check if the coolant level is low and needs to be topped up. 2. Electric fan failure: If the electric fan does not turn on when the engine is hot, inspect the circuit, resistor, grounding wire, and the fan itself for issues. 3. Thermostat failure: Check if the thermostat is functioning properly. 2. Below is an introduction to the Baojun 730: 1. Space: The Baojun 730 CVT version features an ergonomically optimized design with a 2+3+2 seating layout. The second and third-row seats can be folded flat for different usage scenarios, providing both comfortable seating and ample, practical storage space. 2. Powertrain: The Baojun 730 CVT version is equipped with a "1.5T turbocharged engine + simulated 8-speed CVT transmission" powertrain combination. The engine has a rated power of 111kW and a maximum net torque of 250N·m.
I've been driving my Baojun 730 recently, and the coolant temperature warning light keeps coming on, which is quite worrying. Possible causes of overheating include insufficient coolant or leaks—check if the coolant reservoir level is too low or if there are cracks in the hoses, causing the coolant to drain away. Another reason could be a faulty fan motor that isn't spinning, or a radiator clogged with dust, preventing heat from dissipating. Alternatively, the thermostat might be stuck closed, disrupting coolant flow. Additionally, if the car is overloaded with passengers or climbing steep hills, the engine's increased workload can easily lead to overheating. If this happens, don't push it—stop immediately, open the hood to cool it down, and avoid risking engine damage. Get to a repair shop as soon as possible for part replacements. Make it a habit to check the temperature gauge before driving and regularly clean the radiator fins to ensure proper airflow.
