cooling fan

Featured Replies

Hi my cooling fan stay on for a very long time short or long run and is loud we can hear it indoors thats how loud

If yours is a diesel it's most likely doing a regen and you'interupted it by switching the engine off part way through the regen. Once you switch the ignition off it abandons the regen and won't try again until the soot has built back up. The fans are going flat out because it heats the dpf up more during the regen so has to cool it down if you stop part way through. Classic signs it's doing a regen are tickover increases to around 1000 rpm, the engine note may change as a result and it might smell hot too. It'll keep doing this until it completes a regen. If you continually fail to complete one eventually it'll go into limp mode and you'll have to go to the dealers.Look on skodas website under dpf and it'll explain. HTH

My petrol spins its fans up when the weather and car is very hot. It did it today after a long journey with a lot of traffic at the end,

A lot of my previous vag cars have done this when warm.

Has the water temp gone over 90 on dash? Any warning lights.

Where did I say was a diesel

Apart from having to guess from your profile, where did you say it wasn't?

 

Can't help you if you omit details, and regulars are even less likely to if you come across as a bit @rsey after 15 posts when it's YOUR request.

 

Just saying.
