Seeking Advice on 2015 Dacia Sandero Overheating Issue and Possible Problem with Additional Water Pump

Coolant level low

Check engine light on

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Overheating

Hey! I'm having some trouble with my 2015 Dacia Sandero running on petrol. The engine check light is on, it's overheating and the coolant level is low. There's a warning sign on my speedometer as well. I suspect it might be an issue with the additional water pump. Has anyone experienced something similar with their vehicle? If so, could you share with me how you managed to sort it out at your garage or provide some troubleshooting tips? Would really appreciate your help.

Hey there! I faced a similar issue with my 2013 Dacia Logan. I'd say my car know-how is somewhere around 'some experience'. The problem with my vehicle turned out to be a faulty Cable on the pump/control unit. My mechanic at the local workshop sorted it out for me, cost me about 225 Euro. Not sure if your issue is the exact same, but from your description, it does seem likely. Could you provide more details about your car? Like its mileage, maintenance record, etc. It'll help paint a clearer picture and better troubleshoot your problem. Cheers!

Hiya! Appreciate your reply. The mileage on my Sandero is currently 60624 KM. Its last service was a while back, but I've kept up with regular maintenance. If it is a faulty cable issue as you suggested, that gives me a clear starting point.Shall get my local garage to have a look at it. Thanks again! Cheers!

No worries we're all here to help each other out after all! With the mileage you have, it's quite possible that the cable could be the problem. Make sure your garage checks the electrical connections between the pump and controller. It's not uncommon for corrosion to set in and cause issues with these components. It might be worthwhile getting them to check the primary water pump and thermostat as well, just to rule these factors out. These problems can sometimes appear as a package in older cars. And yeah, do keep up with those regular maintenance schedules, they can be a lifesaver in the long run. Hope it goes easy for you at the garage. Keep us posted!

And yes, knowing how to keep track of the potential problems you mentioned can help prevent them from becoming worse. I'll touch base soon with any updates. Thanks again for being a lifesaver! Cheers!
