I’m having issues with my grand caravan temperature gauge rising slightly above the mid-line when in idle and slow traffic. It moves kind of in an erratic manor. Not crazy erratic.. Just moves a bit up and down. I replaced the cooling fan resistor and checked the coolant level once I waited a few hours. I replaced the resistor because I noticed the fan wasn’t moving fast when in park. That fix seems to help the fan move quicker.
The engine’s warm (still after a few hours but I live in the Deep South and it was 100 today) but I noticed the reservoir has the coolant above the max line a bit. Any ideas what I can do?
I do have a mechanic checking it out on Friday. Seeing if it’s anything I can replace myself.
