olly elworthy 0 Posted January 20, 2004 over the last couple of days my corrado g60 seems to have developed a fault, the coolant takesages to warm up and when it does it wont rise above 70 degrees, the oil temp stays araound a hundred, Im thinking the thermostat could be faulty? or the sender for the temperature gauge is playing up,, any ideas folks? :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corvr6 0 Posted January 20, 2004 Sounds like thermostat to me,mine went on my VR a couple weeks ago same symptom,60-70'C for coolant and 95-100'C for oil. Your thermostat should open at 85'C,(80'C on the VR) Cooling fan should come on at 92'C. If you run your engine from cold and feel upper and lower rad pipes,if both get warm at 60-70'C then change thermostat,if temp gauge will continue to 92'C before cooling fan comes on then temp gauge is working ok,and thermoswitch for cooling fan is working correctly also. Tricky to change on VR,not sure about G60. :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
