cooling and hitting a curb
Okay first my car usually takes a while to warm up.in the mornings i drive to school about 5-10 miles away in 50 degree weather and typically my car would not even be completely warmed up by the time i get there. Approx 120 degrees.
I got cut off the other day and bounced off a curb. actually i got pushed up the curb and on the sidewalk. well i dont see anything wrong with any tie rods or anything and it drives straight and no more bouncy then it used to be. but i noticed my car is heating ALOT faster then it used to. It used to never make it to the median 220 mark and now it will after only a 10-15 mile trip in 75-80 degree weather.
The fan was also making alot of noise and wasnt working properly so i replaced the motor and it's still noisy but works better. What could be the problem? it also seems to be eating coolant. PLEASE HELP

oh, i hit the cur around 20 mph
