when one thing is fixed something else breaks!!

[Spicy Hot LS]

Ok my wifes LS is being a pain in the ass and i only had it two weeks! ok here is the deal. she came to me and told me baby my heat is coming out cold! and my temp guage is not working! so i took the time to go to honda pick up a threm and gasket. put it in and bingo heats is good and the gauge was working! a week goes by and today she calls me and says baby there is white smoke coming from the front of my car by the passenger side. i go outside because i was thinking maybe i forgot something or didn't tighten something. go outside when the car was cold and i checked everything. Nothing was found. i started the car took it for a nice long run came back and sure as shit it was steaming. Now the question to you guys and gals is: Her car is an Auto and i was wondering if there is any type of tranny cooler or something that goes from the tranny to the radiator to cool the fluid in the trans? Please tell me NO!

that shit happened to me. check the coolant level. if it looks low chances are the radiator is cracked.

if it is a cracked radiator, don't feel like your Teg's a beater. our radiators usually do crack or need replacement before the 100K mark. it's a common thing with integras. maybe you should upgrade to a nice Koyo Radiator while you're at it

or Fluidyne. Mine went out around 90k and we got a OE replacement.

I agree, check the radiator and hoses. If there's a leak anywhere, whatever coolant is leaking will smoke when it touches other parts under the hood. Another thing is, you could probably smell it. I had a cracked radiator a while ago, and I can still smell burnt coolant until this day.

www.radiatorbarn.com is a great resource if you're trying to get a OE replacement.
