Assuming the temp. gauge reading is correct, electric fan & engine fan work probably & there's no sign of cylinder crack & losing coolant.
My car runs to 3/4 of the temp.gauge & slowing move towards to red in slow traffic in quite short time. I can see its got no intention to cool down even the electric fan is on. It used to get down to 1/2 when my fan is on last year in same situration. Now, it will get back to 1/2 only when I drive fast on freeway.
I suspect that it's either the raidator or thermostat but recently I just flushed the raidator two times.
Do you have any idea ??
