Author Topic: 2002 V6 overheating issue TrillaJay ¯ Member # 10274 posted                              So this came up when I was diagnosing my gf's 02 v6, car has been overheating and I'm wondering what needs to be done to correct this issue? I'm thinking that the heads need to be redone? Thanks for your help and opinions. -------------------- 04'MystichromeSVTCobra#524 03'BuiltSilverSVTCobra-SOLD 99'BlackSVTCobra-SOLD Posts: 2071 | From: EastBay | Registered: Aug 2010  |  : JohnB Tech Moderator Member # 969 posted                              Compression and leakdown check first. Nothing there? Coolant system pressure test. If it's over 125k, it's probably a HG. Just my experience. -------------------- 1965 Shelby Cobra 1993 Cobra 2012 F150 Raptor 2020 GT500 Posts: 6523 | From: Orlando FL/Redding CA | Registered: Mar 2002  |  : TrillaJay ¯ Member # 10274 posted                              Thanks.
