why is it that the motor...elvisvasquez 08-28-2005, 10:48 AM ok my friends always tell me that my motor get too hot, the meter doesn't read that it gets hot out of the ordernary, even my oldset brother who drives a maxima said so, i wonder is it a problem or not, it never had overheated just in case. thank you for your time JustSayGo 08-28-2005, 11:04 AM Have you asked your friends why they say your engine is getting too hot? Maybe there is an oil leak and they smell oil burning off of the hot exhaust. elvisvasquez 08-28-2005, 09:55 PM no they don't smell oil burning just hot air coming from under the car and through the vents of the ac when its off you can fill that the car gets wormer as the car stays on for more time. thanks in advance :) JustSayGo 08-29-2005, 10:13 AM So the exhaust system is is getting so hot that people notice something isn't right. Maybe your engine is wasting fuel because it isn't running right and the catalytic converter is burning the extra fuel or the ignition timing is retarded. Catalytic converters can get hot enough to start the car on fire or anything flamable under the car. The heat will melt the inside of the converter, ruin it and plug the exhaust. 4trackmixtape 08-29-2005, 02:35 PM I've noticed my Altima runs hotter than any other car I've owned. It never overheats, but the fan kicks on about four times as often as my Civic. elvisvasquez 08-29-2005, 04:28 PM so it could be a couple of things well then i may have to take the car to be checked out, thanks for your help justsaygo hope is not that bad. till next question :smile: vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
