Hello all
The car is a 95 m3 w/ vanos, water pump, stat/housing, & radiator done within the last year. There are no leaks at all and coolant is full.
Last night a relative of mine washed his car next to mine while my hood was open. The engine of my car was wet.
I do not have any mods but a Cosmos intake with whatever sensor connects to the stock air box exposed.
The car overheated today while driving. I only drove 15 city blocks with the A/C on. It was also raining. The temp was pinned to the right, my A/C felt weak, and red light was on (no CEL)
It was pouring outside and I could not check if the aux fan turned on.
I slowly drove home and made it back in 5 minutes.
After turning the car off for a while, then back on, I did extensive testing WOT testing and the temps were fine. The aux fan turned on when needed. Everything was perfect.
What could have caused this problem? I am afraid to drive the car far now.
Any suggestions would be helpful
Thanks
