Suzuki problem

no engine size stated. ENGINE COOLANT WHICH CAP?
my guess, you meant the RAD CAP or the SIDE expansion tank cap
DO TELL?
if the exp. plastic cheap tank cap fails you need a new tank
if the RAD cap fails.
that means , (wrong cap) or wrong rad.

lets do the little story, here,
last owner took out the stock rad, and put in a
POS import tank. (see this 3 times or more)
and has a custom tank, not legal Suzuki cap, at all.
the good rad BTW, is Spectra Premium brand, for sure.
the the CSF wonder RADs
http://www.csfimports.com/csf_catalog/

one, i fixed i took the radiator in hand drop to every car store in town.
and guess what,, it has a non suzuki cap.
we tried every STANT (usa maker) cap and one fit. perfect.

Id bet wrong cap. .wrong RAD
they must match, that is for sure.

Will alloy wheels from a HONDA CRV fit a SUZUKI GRAND VITARA. Both are 5 stud so just wondering if anyone can help

The rims from the Honda CRV won't fit the Grand Vitara.

The Honda has a 5 X 114.3mm spacing and the Grand Vitara has 5 X 139.7mm spacing. This means that even though they are both 5 lug rims, the Honda lugs are spaced closer together than the Vitara so they won't match up.

Grand vitara radiator over heating

I have had brand new Thermostats that are bad. The way to check a thermostat is to boil it in water and see when it opens. You may need to have your radiator cleaned or roded out. You can also remove your thermostat and see what happens then I would start by flushing the system and see what you get.
