MikeDB Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I bought a 2010 2 litre non-turbo Impreza as my old GX 2 litre was getting long in the tooth and this seemed to be the latest year one could buy something between the gutless 1.6 litre and the 'hear it in the next county' turbo models. However since I bought it, the engine cooling fan seems to come on far more often then the older model. Pull up at a junction and it comes on within 5 seconds. Both K T Green in Yorkshire and Colin Appleyards in Ashton have looked at it and claim it is fine but to my mind there is obviously something amiss. Unfortunately for some insane reason this model doesn't have an actual temperature gauge so I've no idea if the car is actually running hot or the fan is coming on too early. Anybody else seen this, or have suggestions on what could be wrong ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Fit an oil temp or water temp gauge. That will give you an indication if its running hot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark D Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Some obd2 readers can see what the water temperature is, could maybe leave that on while running to see if it cools down when moving etc Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
