Under normal driving (even stop and go traffic) our Quest run in the middle of the temperature gauge as it should.
If it idles for 3+ minutes the temperature starts to rise and within 7 minutes it is near the top of the temperature scale.
This happens whether the AC is on or off. Could too much tension on the A/C belt be causing too much load? The check engine light is not illuminated. Does it make sense to have our local auto parts store check for error codes?
Should I start with the thermostat assembly? Or, is it more likely the water pump?
Thanks,
Chris
