Some people may remember about my radiator going... https://www.fiatforum.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2810&SearchTerms=,car,went,bang ...should have posted this a while ago, but anyway... some people on here said that the cinq's normal running temp is about 90 degrees (which mine always ran at, before it 'went bang'
) but since having the new radiator and having the coolant flushed etc... it always runs at about halfway between 90 and 75ish . The only time it gets to 90 is if Im sat in traffic for ages. The fan hardly ever comes on anymore. Just an idea for anyone who's Cinq runs particuarly hot all the time. Try flushing the coolant and if possible and if the radiator is old, get a new radiator (but I know they are expensive, mine was changed under warrenty).
Just a thought!
