I have a Honda Civic FD1 2007 Auto Sedan with an Engine Watchdog fitted as an aftermarket protection audible warning against engine overheat and low oil pressure. This device has a digital engine temperature readout.
I'm just wondering if my cooling system is operating within normal specs.
With the A/C switched off and from cold I idled the engine and noted the both fans kicked in at 94 degrees C. Is this normal operation?
I turned the engine off and noted both fans freewheel to a stop. The radiator fan came to an abrupt halt followed by the A/C fan which continued to freewheel a few seconds more. I spun the fans by hand and the radiator fan seems noisy and rough. Is it possible to replace the bearing in this motor? Otherwise I'll get a whole assembly from ebay here in Australia.
I normally run the car with the A/C on and both fans run when the engine is started from cold.
Thanks.
