From a leak in the cooling system to an issue with the radiator, there are a number of reasons why a Porsche might overheat. There’s a “normal” place for the temperature gauge to sit in each vehicle. Most cars tend to operate between 195 and 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you start your Porsche but notice the gauge is reading far higher than normal, do not drive the car. If you drive an overheating car, you could put yourself in danger and it will only cause bigger, costlier issues down the road.

If your Porsche is overheating, it’s a clear sign that there’s a bigger issue to take care of. Here are a few of the most common reasons your car might overheat:
Sometimes, your Porsche may start overheating when you’re on the road. The first thing you’ll want to do is turn off the air conditioning and run the heat at full blast instead. When you’re able to pull to safety, you shouldn’t attempt to pop the hood for at least 30 minutes. The best way to maintain your safety and that of others nearby is to call a towing service to pick up your vehicle.
When the time comes to have your vehicle serviced, use the service specials available at the Rusnak/Pasadena service center to save more. Even if your vehicle isn’t overheating, you’ll want to keep up with regular maintenance to ensure your safety on Arcadia roads. Have questions in the meantime? Contact our team!
