I had a Problem with my fans Last week (only one working)so i've taken it in to the garage to get it fixed.

Both fans are working but the car water temp is 100-105 driving at 30 mph around town and out on the open road.

Any ideas ???
before the problems started the temp would be around 80-90ish.

What temp does your griffs run at??

Does it make any diffrence which way the fans rotate??
if your looking at the front end into the engine bay left fan anti clockwise right fan clockwies!

The both fans should rotate in the same direction.They should suck air INTO the engine bay.This will be the reason your car is running hot i would bet!
Should add that all you need to do is reverse the polarity of the fan thats not pulling air into the engine bay,then it will pull air in the correct direction.

Hi Rob, hi Mike byebye

Mine's rock steady at 90°C within a couple of minutes of starting - fair weather or foul.
Mike, I'll contact you shortly so we can finish what we started if that's ok?
