Any ideas?
Hi all, my missus' '11 1.2 500 seems to have the fan on ALOT recently. The temp gauge on the dash is showing normal but still the fan is roaring. It even runs for a while after the car has been turned off. Any ideas?
Cheers

I bled the system and a lot of air came out I'll get some coolant mix to add in.
I can't shine a torch into the radiator the only connections are plumbed in.
As I said I can't see where the coolant would be going.
The coolant level is OK at the moment.
That level of leakage,, cracked thermostat housing would be a key candidate ?
Red/pink anti freeze about 2l of, pull the clip out of the bottom radiator hose and wiggle the quick connector off, fill to brim with water then pull off the bottom hose a let it suddenly drain, pop back on lightly and fill again/repeat you won't believe the rubbish that comes out, hook back together and fill with anti freeze mix, need to bleed the heater hose just above bust stat, be EXTREMELY CAREFUL with the bleed screw it's very fragile!
