problem #1

Oct 222011

Contour SE 2.0L 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 188,554 miles

I was relieved when a coolant flush fixed the problem. I was afraid it was the heater core. Fortunately it was not. But after the flush, a check engine light came on for a completely separate problem.

Update from Mar 31, 2012: The thermostat also had to be replaced.
