    Hi,

    I just bought an Integra LS, a month ago. It was hot today and when I put
    the air-con on for 15min the car started to overheat. When I turned it off
    it went back to normal instantly. What could it be?

    Thanks

    Do both cooling fans come on when you turn the A/C on?

  5. This could be the main reason the person that sold the car placed it up
    for sale. With a used car, it's a good idea to do a complete tune-up. I
    would also advise you to take it to a radiator shop and have them flush
    out the cooling system and add all new coolant. Also, tell the manager or
    owner of radiator shop about your problem. He may be able to figure out
    what caused your problem. It's possible that the car might have overheated
    even if you had turned on the air conditioner.
