teveO 10 Posted May 18, 2012 just arrived home from work and as i turned off the engine the fan kicked in and was running for a while is this normal? surely it should start when the engine temp is getting high? as it does go up over 90c also sounded as if there was some sort of air leak noise from the engine while the fan was running. as soon as i put the ignition on it all stopped? confused me really :scratch: also.... if the engine is started cold it idles fine untill correct temp... if i drive it for a while then stop, turn the engine off and back on it will rev up to 1100 rpm and down untill it nearly cuts out, and does this for about 10 seconds untill it find its idle spot just under 1000rpm any help would be much appreciated thanks in advance steve...

Album56 0 Posted May 19, 2012 Fan running after switch off is normal. The G60 gets very hot under the hood after a run & has a separate temp sensor mounted by the manifold to cool things down, this operates independently of the rad sensor. Idle has fast on start up facility & 1100rpm would be about right after start up for a few seconds when hot but nearly cutting out suggests idle settings not quite right & you should be able to adjust the idle screw at the back of the manifold &/or the CO pot to improve things, see threads for G60 idle setting. Enjoy your car Steve sounds like nothing to worry about really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
