Oh, il search the web see if i can find anything

Yeah both come on when ac is on, both are on when fan is on high and low speeds. I thk im gona have to book it in with a subaru specialist :(

OMG, jus got home from work and noticed that me turning my lights on and off also affects the coolant fan speed, is this a big electrical prob iv got :( could my mechanic have wired the fans wrong ? Havnt had a chance to burp it again but think thats not the prob now :/

Ahh thats a shame, i will be there anyways

Hey guys anyone going to castle combe japfest this sat ?

Okay cool i will giv it a go :) iv got a cap on the actual rad aswel should i take that off aswel ?

Yeah no faults :/ on that pic wen it says rad cap does that mean the header tank cap ? How long hav a got be4 the pressure goes up ? Wont the fluid go everywhere wen caps off and engine on ?

Header tank is that the silver tank near the turbo ? Yeah got warm air in cabin, its not great tho and sometimes i feel its not hot enough

Could there be air in it still even tho both pipes get hot n stuff ?

Lovely :( drove to work and the fans are not cutting out again, im gona try burping it again 2nite, should i completely drain and start again or can i jus try it again ?

Hmm hopfuly its nothing then :) Does your temp gauge move much when driving around or is it solid when up to temp ?

Hmmm okay i will take out abit then :) could that be the sorce of all my probs lol

It never used to sit dead center, it sat jus below, but not that low, i we are only talkin a few mm lol

Jus went out for drive to get pics and test the rad, yeah rad hot both sides and both pipes hot, expansion tank is at max wen cold then goes bout inch n a half above when hot. I will send a pic of gauge

And i can smell coolant under the bonnet somtimes wen hot but the levels not dropping atal ? Dono if thats normal ?

Could all this be down to air in the system because iv always heard its hard to bleed the system well ?

Right iv had a new subaru coolant temp sensor fitted which has sorted my coolant fan prob so they do switch off now, but the temp gauge on dash still isnt right, maybe worse than before, it still sits too low during driving, wen i pull up to junction it seems to dip abit and when i turn on the heater fan in the car that effects it aswell :( realy dont know wot to do now :( I had a new rad fitted, prob wasnt a oem one because i thk my mechanic used his normal motor parts dealer, could that be cooling the engine better than the old one ? when it was taken out it had bowed at the sides which was weird, and had a tiny leak.

Yeah i think so :) god i hope it fixes this prob, so weird how my heater fan control makes the temp gauge on dash drop lol i dont like it :/

I thk the coolant sensor goes into the cross over pipe which the top one does look as if it does ?

Thats what i thought until i seen that pic, i know thats for a forester but it look similar ?

There's sensor above and below a hose i thk its the one above ? If u can see in the pic lol
