Greetings All,
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Warmed up my 02 Envoy SLT this morning. When I got in about 15 min later, I could still see my breath in the truck. I didn't think much of it, I thought my auto start did not kick on. Manually turned on and started driving, still no hot air, but the heater is blowing.
About almost 1 and a half miles into my commute, my temperature guage started moving past 210 and on mile 2, my "check guages" light came on and temp guage were at the max (overheating). Pulled over for about 15 min, started up again and 3 blocks later same thing. Made it to work, but its going to sit here till I can find a solution.
In the past 2 months, I have been hearing a sound coming from the engine like if there were some ball bearings grinding. I thought this was from the A/C compressor (I read about a defect on this somewheren and didn't think much of it)
Everything was fine last night, but this morning, outside temerature was at -3 degrees.
Should I replace only the thermostat, or should I go ahead and buy a water pump also and replace?
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
