That’s what I thought but it pops up every so often. From some research I’ve done if it’s a sensor the engine light comes on but my engine light doesn’t

Hey everyone I’ve installed a platinum dpf delete about a year ago & the cars just started showing code p1453 which I’m aware is a dpf fault due to it not being in. I clear the code and it comes back after about 1000kms. I’m wondering if anyone has experience tuning out the dpf? I’ve got TOAD...

Hey all I’ve got a 2016 np300 & every time when it’s wet it has a knocking sound when I take off & that’s it. It only ever happens when it’s wet & it’s fairly loud. The sound is coming from the front right, thinking maybe the ball joint? Any ideas/ suggestions are appreciated:)

The fan actually sounds w dont have the old one unfortunately :( fan is the same volume throughout the drives, if anything possibly the smallest bit quieter once warm. I’m going to plug the computer into the car tomorrow & hopefully I’ll be able to see something on there. This really has me...

Going back to what you said about the thermovalve being open allowing more power to be put through it, could this keep the fan running due to the valve being stuck open?

Are they not only supposed to engage when the cars getting hot too?

Right I’ll give that a crack, I’ve also heard that when the fan is running if you try stop it with say a piece of cardboard it should stop/ slow down right? I’ve tried that with this one & it just chewed right through it, I’m onto my second viscous fan & just struggling to understand why its...

i don’t understand why it’s always running at the same rpm the engine is, I’m scared to go past 3k rpm because it sounds like it’s gonna explode to pieces

Yeah can still spin it by hand. I just don’t understand why it’s so loud? I’ve never heard another Nav sound like this

Sounds like that, the higher the engine rpm the faster the fan spins & the louder it is, it’s always spinning at the same rpm as the engine no matter what

I should’ve mentioned it’s like the fan is locked in with the engine, if the engines at 3k rpm the fan is too & is crazy loud

Yeah always at normal temperature, never once gone over, I should’ve mentioned this before but I forgot, the fan is always spinning at the same rpm as the engine, like it’s constantly locked in with the engine, the higher the rpm the louder the fan gets

I don’t think they are oil filled, I’ve just gotten a brand new one put in too & still constantly staying engaged. I’m thinking it may be the spring on the temperature sensor is stuck open causing the fan to think the cars hot all the time

Okay so if I get the missus to turn the car off when it’s cold & it stops with the engine is that an issue as it shouldn’t be engaged when the engines cold?

It’s constantly spinning, even on start up the fan is blowing, it’s never not blowing. It’s so bloody loud too especially when getting up to 3k rpm
