Hi all - need some input...
I own a 2010 QP V GTS with a full Maserati SH and 20k miles on the clock.
I had the water coolant expansion tank replaced today (£16.70 for an OEM replacement wow!) and the garage noticed that at idle the fan comes on for about 3-5 seconds only, at sort of 15-20 sec intervals constantly. They thought it should come on properly for longer or not at all but not at this frequency for such a limited duration.
The guys thought it might be a faulty coolant temp gauge so they checked the advisories - nothing now or cleared historically.
The fan worked perfectly when the aircon was turned off - so the guys checked the aircon advisories - nothing - all clear again now and historically.
What I get inside the car at say traffic lights is the same cycle, and the air con blows a bit harder as the fans spins for the 3-5 secs.
Any thoughts?
