[QUOTE="xcrave, post: 533869, member: 21738"] Just to ask... ive met with a mech (just came back from denmark) i was told that all these thermostat and stuff in the radiator system can be removed in our climate since its used for CONTI-Car in Winter and such... in our country its best if the radiator can perform a continuous cooling effect... ehat the thermostat used for is to allow a certain portion of the water remain heated to avoid the water from being frozen... THEREFORE... when this fail we face overheating... Why not just remove all those things and let the temp sensor control the speed of the fan... more free coolant movement= cooler radiator = more power to the engine = less stress on the fans... What say you? [/QUOTE]
