Every single time i drive home, and turn my car off, the engine fan comes on. ALWAYS. If i run my car goin home, or if i dont go over 3k rpm doesnt matter. None of my other cars did this. Normal?

 

as long as it goes off after a few min its normal.

 

its a poor mans turbo timer. ill wait around a couple times n see. THnx man

 

have you played with any of your wires lately?? what i did at one time is i accidently switched the oil temp sensor plug (under head beside vtec) and the coolant temp sensor (next to top radiator hose infront of head) and it made my vtec not work and the fan stay on all the time.

 

My 99 2.3 does the same but all mechanics tell me theres no problem and its actually good for the car. :0/

 

dont worry about it till your battery dies

 

Well then if its good for the car, its good for me! I thought it was because i abuse my car. Its the Inner taxi driver in me.

I dont think its too bad i waited around last night a couple times, and never goes for more than 2-3 minutes.

 

Well this thread i made about a week ago, and yesterday my car was overheating like crazy. So please everyone learn from me and if ur fan start turning on after u turn ur car off a lot. CHECK UR RADIATOR!!! mine has a big leak on the top. I replaced it today. gooddamnit.

 

At least your fans work : /

 

Lol. thnx for pointing that out.

Who else has recently replaced their radiator? How much did u guyz pay?

 

Damn that sucks about your radiator... Ive checked it not too long ago and im constantly looking at the temp but theres no sign of anything leaking or overheating on mine...

 

It is my experience that if something suddenly changes, there is a problem. And yes, my old 90' Teg did that, but it was the fault of the thermostat not opening properly. Not long after that, I smelled coolent and had to replace my radiator. These cars seem to give you warning that they are going to take a crap on you. PAY ATTENTION TO THE LITTLE THINGS, it will save you headaches in the long run.

Peace, love and ACURA
