Re: 99 s80 overheats with AC on in traffic
Usually have to add coolant just about every time I drive it. I will check the radiator, but suspect it's not that considering I just replaced it in the fall. Thanks for the response.

99 s80 overheats with AC on in traffic

I purchased a used 99 s80 2.9L from an individual about 2 1/2 years ago. The car has had cooling system issues since we've had it and then began to run hot when the A/C was on and we were sitting in traffic. I have replaced the thermostat, coolant expansion tank, and upper radiator hose within the l...
