What are the main causes of engine overheating in a Mercedes-Benz S-Class driving in Pakistan’s extreme heat?

I drive a Mercedes-Benz S-Class in Pakistan, and I’m concerned about the engine overheating, especially during the hot summer months. What are the most common reasons that lead to engine overheating in this car under Pakistan’s extreme temperature conditions? Are there specific parts o r systems prone to failure?

Engine overheating in the Mercedes-Benz S-Class under Pakistan’s hot climate can be caused by several factors:

Cooling System Issues: Faulty radiator, clogged coolant passages, o r a failing water pump can reduce coolant flow, leading to overheating.

Low Coolant Levels: Due to leaks o r evaporation, insufficient coolant can’t absorb and dissipate heat effectively.

Thermostat Failure: A stuck thermostat prevents coolant from circulating properly, causing engine temperature to spike.

Radiator Fan Problems: Electric fans may fail o r not activate properly, reducing airflow needed to cool the radiator.

Heavy Engine Load: High ambient temperatures combined with aggressive driving o r heavy AC use can overload the cooling system.

Blocked Airflow: Dust, dirt, o r debris blocking the radiator grille reduces cooling efficiency.

Regular maintenance of the cooling system, timely coolant changes, and inspections are crucial to avoid overheating in Pakistan’s extreme heat.
