VW Corrado 16V 0 Posted March 27, 2004 my car: 1.8i 16V (with auto air conditioning) Before I write about my problem (that my car go to 110 degrees water temp) now I fixed it. The problem was that the sensor of the cool fans starts too late (1 st on 100 degrees and 2 nd ot 110 degrees). Now I buy a new (they told me it's universal of all vw's) that starts on 1 st 88 and 2 nd on 92 degrees. And my car now go to traffic (in the city) to 92/93 max 94 degrees! Is that now the normal water temperature! And is it normal every time when I drive it in the city my fans to starts. Will the motor (of the fans) stand! Is this normal when I turn it off to hear how the fans works (1st the fast one then the slow one). I buy one motor with 2 fans (with strap) from Passat.

Henny 0 Posted March 28, 2004 The corrado has a fan-overrun facility which means that the cooling fan can run for a few minutes after the engine has been turned off... If it's running for more than around 10 minutes I'd start to get worried... 15-20 and then I would be worried, any more than that and I'd say something was wrong... I take it you do live in a much hotter country than England, so I'd probably say that if it stays running for more than 15 mins after you've stopped, there's something not quite correct... :? Hope this helps... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VW Corrado 16V 0 Posted March 29, 2004 My question to all is: Is your sensor of the cooling fans is like mine? Mine starts on 1 st 88 (slow) and 2 nd on 92 degrees (fast). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 29, 2004 yup, that sounds about right for how mine works... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
