Quick answer
The GWM POER's GW4C20B 2.0-litre turbo gasoline engine (GWM UAE 2025 sheet) often works hardest when cooling air is scarce: crawling in soft sand, climbing with a full bed or idling on site with the air-conditioning on. Use the coolant type GWM specifies and keep the radiator clean. ShipMyPart has not verified the coolant specification, mix, capacity or interval, so we confirm by VIN before supplying coolant or cooling parts.
What we know, and what we confirm by VIN
- Known (GWM UAE 2025): GW4C20B 2.0T gasoline, 4WD double-cabin pickup.
- Not published: coolant type, mix, capacity and replacement interval.
- Other versions: any non-UAE or diesel POER is checked separately by VIN.

Grit between the fins
On a pickup that lives on site roads and dune tracks, the radiator slowly fills with fine grit and insects that a quick glance through the grille will not reveal. The front stack is two cores deep: the air-conditioning condenser sits ahead of the radiator, so both must be clear. Ask for them to be cleaned from behind with low-pressure water when the truck is serviced, rather than blasted from the front.
Load and low speed: the hot combination
A loaded POER climbing slowly through soft sand produces a lot of heat while moving almost no air through the grille. The cooling system then depends entirely on the fan and on coolant in good condition. If you see the temperature rising in these conditions, ease off, let the engine idle with the A/C off for a minute, and do not switch off straight away after a hard climb.
Daily and weekly checks
| How often | Check |
|---|---|
| Before a desert trip | Cold level in the reservoir; hoses firm, no cracks |
| Weekly on a work truck | Wet patches or crust at hose joints and the water pump |
| Any time | Never open the cap while the engine is hot |
If the warning comes on
- Stop somewhere safe and switch off; driving on can damage the engine.
- Wait until everything is cold before looking at the level.
- A full reservoir with overheating can point to a stuck thermostat, a blocked radiator or the fan.
- Have it inspected before the next loaded or off-road trip.
Cooling parts we source for the POER
For a truck that earns its keep, the cooling parts most worth watching are the rubber ones: hoses harden in the heat and the expansion tank cap seal ages. We also source the radiator, water pump, thermostat and reservoir, so a pre-summer check can be done in one visit.
Coolant for your POER
Overheating on a pickup is rarely just about the coolant. Tell us what happened (a climb in sand, a full bed, a long idle on site) together with the VIN, and we will put together the coolant GWM specifies plus the part your workshop points to, so the truck is back at work with one delivery.

Frequently asked questions
What coolant does the GWM POER use?
The type GWM specifies for the POER. ShipMyPart has not verified it; check the owner's manual or send us your VIN.
Why does my POER run hotter after desert trips?
Sand and dust can block the radiator and condenser fins. Have them cleaned gently and check the coolant level when cold.
Is it safe to keep driving when the temperature warning is on?
No. Stop safely and switch off, then have the cause found.
Can I top up with water in the desert?
In an emergency, yes, to get home. Restore the correct coolant mix soon afterwards.
How much coolant does the POER hold?
ShipMyPart has not verified the capacity; we confirm it by VIN.
When should POER coolant be replaced?
Follow the service book or a GWM service centre. We don't quote an interval until it is verified.
