- 2006 ford explorer XLt
i have a 2006 ford explorer and have been having two problems with it for a good while now. the first problem is that the car begins to over head when the Ac is on and the car is in idle. when i’m driving with the ac the temperature stays normal, but once i’ve been driving for a while and then get stuck in traffic or come to any stop for a couple minutes with the ac still on the temperature will start to rise to very top. it goes back down once i turn the ac off and drive and get air into the system. i’ve changed the radiator as well as the fan clutch, thermostat, put a new radiator cap and even taken the air out with one of those coolant funnels. the second problem is that i’ll be driving for a while then all of a sudden the motor shuts off on me and the oil lights comes on. (the oil levels are fine and not low) i then put the car in park and turn the car off and shut it off and start it up again and it runs like normal. any help with either would be greatly helpful.
