shops and questions...
Hey guys..I'm new to the forum, so Hello to everyone. I have a question, my 02 Durango 4x4 has been overheating recently while in traffic and the A/C on low....now, I overheat regardless of whether the A/C is on or off....and I get a loud roar out of the engine on throttle until about 30 mph....Any ideas? I just took it in for a coolant flush, the truck's got 55K miles on it, and thinking that I only had the dealer to trust here, the techs at the Dodge dealership were quoting me outrageous prices for maintenance....45K service = $450.00, FAIS (whatever the hell that means) = $250.00, belts(new) = $160.00....I need a good and fair mechanic in Chicago, IL and fast...any recommendations?
I appreciate any and all help and I'm open to any suggestions..Thanks!

If your 02 is like my 03 Durango, you have electric fans on the radiator, and a clutch fan. The clutch fan is probably making the roar noise. I would check if your electric fans are coming on correctly. And check for debri in the front of your radiator.
