Verso temperature issues

Hey, I had something similar happen with my Verso. I'm not sure if it's exactly the same, but the engine temp readings were all over the place. Did you check the fuses related to the cooling system?

Thanks for the tip! I haven't checked any fuses yet. Could you tell me which fuses are related to the cooling system or thermal management? And were your symptoms identical to mine?

Yeah, the symptoms sound pretty much the same. I didn't check the specific fuses myself, to be honest. I just took it to a workshop. They sorted it out quickly. Probably best to do the same.

Okay, I appreciate the advice. I checked the fuses, and one was indeed defective, as suspected. Replacing it seems to have resolved all the issues. The total repair cost was 52€. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction!

Toyota Verso 2007: red temperature light flicks. I find water level down but I don't notice any leak. However, after putting a litre or so it cools down even the Rev goes down. What could be the problem here?.

Toyota Verso 2007: The red temperature light has been flickering for a while now. I've added more than a liter of water. The RPMs are dropping. There's no visible water leak that I can see. What's the problem?

Start by checking the radiator cap for any damage or wear, as a faulty cap can cause coolant loss without visible leaks. If the cap seems fine, inspect the coolant reservoir and hoses for any signs of small leaks or cracks. If the issue persists, it might be wise to have a mechanic perform a pressure test on the cooling system to identify any hidden leaks. Keep an eye on the coolant level and temperature gauge, and let me know how it goes or if you have further questions.

Make sure to also check the thermostat, as it might be stuck open, causing the engine to run cooler than normal and potentially leading to coolant loss. If the thermostat is faulty, replacing it could resolve the issue. Let me know if this helps or if you have any other questions!

Toyota Verso 2007: red temperature light flicks on. I then stop and put 1lt or more of water. Red light goes out. Engine cools down, Rev goes bit down. May drive +10kms before the light come back again. What could be the problem with the cooling system?

Check the radiator and coolant hoses for any small leaks or cracks that might not be immediately visible. Also, inspect the water pump for any signs of leakage or malfunction, as it could be causing the coolant loss. If you can't find any visible issues, consider having a mechanic perform a pressure test on the cooling system to identify any hidden leaks. Since this is a safety-relevant issue, it's important to address it promptly. Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions!
