whenever i drive in the rain my engine has a lot of steam coming from the engine. is this normal? anyone experiencing this problem?

 

i have the same problem

 

did you ever get it fixed? I dont know if its true but a buddy of mine said my engine could crack and it got me a bit worried

 

It's normal.
It's not coming from the engine but the area in front if it.
There's several old threads on this but I can't link you cause I'm on my phone.

Search...

Edit... Links added below. Just took a little time from my phone.

 

i just started noticing it the other day havent heard that before

 

Once i went thru a huge puddle (no way of avoiding it) and had steam come from my hood/headlight area, scared the crap out of me but i didnt think much of it. car runs the same as before.

well for me its kind of embarrassing, some nice guy pointed out the steam when i pulled up to a 7/11.

 

thanks aeson!

 

I agree. It does look pretty bad. LOL

 

they way i look at it is that it is breathing like a raging bull..;-P

 

I drove my car today for the first time in the rain and when i got home i saw smoke/steam coming from front grill..i go oh no...then thought of this thread..you can put your face to it and just tell by feel and smell it's just steam

 

Yeah, in my old thread, I mentioned that as well

 

Well said...

 

I agree, a tad bit embarrassing. A breezed through a couple other threads but didn't come across exactly why the G is so prone to doing this. My past cars never had this problem and were cheaper cars than this. Aeson, have any ideas?
