What's the reason for the Baojun 730 overheating?
2 Answers
The following are solutions for Baojun 730 overheating: Check for radiator leaks: If the radiator leaks, it will cause insufficient coolant. The car will overheat quickly once it starts running, and the temperature will rise rapidly. The usual solution is to replace the radiator. Refill with better coolant: Some people prefer to add regular drinking water to the radiator, but such water does not provide adequate cooling, leading to radiator overheating. It is necessary to promptly refill with better coolant. Abnormal operation of the fan in front of the radiator: This prevents heat from dissipating quickly, causing the radiator temperature to rise. Simply replace or repair the fan in a timely manner.
I was driving the Baojun 730 when suddenly the water temperature warning light came on, and I was so scared that I immediately pulled over. Upon checking, I found the coolant level was below the minimum line, possibly due to a radiator leak or evaporation. After adding coolant, the problem was resolved. However, overheating could also be caused by a clogged radiator—summer dust buildup blocking the holes; a faulty fan motor not spinning, leading to poor cooling; or a malfunctioning thermostat unable to regulate water flow temperature. If you encounter such a situation, don’t panic. Stop the car immediately, turn off the engine, and wait for the temperature to drop before opening the hood to check the coolant level and fan operation. Make it a habit to check the coolant level monthly and clean the radiator fins regularly. If engine overheating is not addressed promptly, it could lead to increased fuel consumption at best or severe engine damage like cylinder scuffing, requiring expensive repairs. I recommend keeping a spare bottle of water in the car for emergencies—safety always comes first.
