Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Maintenance and Repair / January 2006Engine stopped due to radiator leakage
The engine of my Corolla stopped and fumes were coming from the hood. The oil temperature was high, but not too high. The car was fixed because it was the garage's fault for not properly fitting a tube. My question is: can this cause any permanent damage? > The engine of my Corolla stopped and fumes were coming from the hood. > The oil temperature was high, but not too high.

Overheating is often accompanied by blown head gaskets or warped/cracked heads. Not enough information to come to a conclusion. >The engine of my Corolla stopped and fumes were coming from the hood. >The oil temperature was high, but not too high.

If the car overheated I would be concerned with head warpage. ------------ Alex |
