Not sure what to make of this but the mini cooper fan seems to cut in much more quickly since the cold spell.The temp seems normal but cuts in after even a short run.
Any thoughts much appreciated.

I maybe wrong but in our experience of a mini one (05) reg, when this started happening the thermostat and its housing were knackered. This was sorted under warranty, but was only 90 quid ish to fix iirc

Keep an eye on temps, ours sat at 120 for quite some time (chrono pack) and it went shortly after that.

Cheers

Chris

Check your coolant and oil obviously. Since I screwed a Radiator a few years back I'm always more paranoid when the fan runs for a bit once I have stopped on my MCS.
