| Re: Mental engine fans?? Just had this one sorted on my VRS. Apparently there was water getting into the electrics somewhere (think it was the relays). The radio also kept coming on and the one touch windows only occasionally worked – all fixed now the unit has been replaced. Maybe unrelated but whilst it was in the garage the tire pressure sensor button on the centre consol malfunctioned (smoke coming from it when pressed) and I ended up having to have part of the wiring loom replaced. |

| Re: Mental engine fans?? It's in the garage today, i'm suspecting a dodgy connection or sensor somewhere. I've got my fingers crossed that it's nothing too drastic! Ta, MPM |
