Tad Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Hi I am new to this site but thought it could be a good place to start with my cars problem.I have a 55 plate C5 1600 VTR Diesel It has 73000 miles on the clock. I bought the car 2 years ago and on the whole has been ok but the radiator fan stayed on for at least 5 minutes after the engine had been stopped on random occassions whether after a long run or a quick hop down to the local shops as it was under guarantee from the main dealer I questioned this and they said that this was normal. Now the car is out of guarantee the fan seems to have packed up all together and in the slow traffic the engine overheat warning shows and temperature rises sharply.I have just had a quote from a local garage who say its the fan module box is faulty and the whole thing fan and unit will need replacing at a cost of £400 quid,ouch!. Is this acommon problem with this car? and does anyone have any cheaper solutions? Looking forward to your suggestions Quote
