Damn!!! Car overheated. HELP
I was on my way to a Halloween party in HOLLYWOOD when we we about a block away my car temp starting going up and i see a COOLANT TEMP warning. the temp gauge creeps toward red and i pull over. I opened the hood and removed the coolant expansion tank cap and it starting steaming and coolant came gushing out. Smoked for a couple minutes and then stopped. Liquid was all over the place. This was in the middle of traffic and people going to the club. how embarrassing and sucky. Anyway let it cool for like a half hour and put like a half gallon of coolant and drove it a block over to the gas station. found a spot later last nite a block away my car is sitting in hollywood. Spent $60 on a taxi to get home. Going to tow it to a repair shop later. Anyway have any ideas of what could be broken and how much it costs. This sucks. I swear it was the stupid hollywood exit ramp that killed me. Spent a good 30min waiting to turn and moving 5 ft at a time up the exit ramp. Does this cause a lot of stress on the cooling system.
