If an engine overheats the metal parts expand and the engine will seize up. A seized engine is usually unrepairable.

What is the solution of the engine overheating?

The solution to engine overheating depends on the underlying cause. Some common causes of engine overheating are low coolant levels a faulty thermostat a broken water pump or a clogged radiator. To determine the cause of the engine overheating you should first check the temperature gauge on the dashboard. If the temperature is rising then the problem is most likely related to the cooling system. To resolve the issue you can take the following steps: Check the coolant reservoir and refill it if necessary. Check the thermostat and replace it if it is faulty. Check the water pump and replace it if it is broken. Check the radiator for any obstructions or clogs and clean them out.If the cooling system is in good working condition and the engine is still overheating then there may be other issues such as a worn out head gasket a problem with the fuel injectors or a worn out timing belt. In such cases it is best to take the car to a mechanic for further diagnosis and repair.
