Hi all my front radiator fans come on as soon as I start the engine... even from being sat all night.... any ideas :)

If that happens with the CLIMATRONIC turned on in auto mode it is normal if CLIMATRONIC is turned off or in econ mode it shouldnt happen.

The fans are not just used to keep the coolant cool, they also keep the aircon condenser cool and this get hot very quickly, so the fans run all the time with the AC not in Econ mode. Press the ECON button and the fans should stop.
