We don't get nearly as hot/humid here on the CA Central Coast, but I removed the mechanical fan set-up and the car has never heat up -- even when traveling inland (>100 degrees), A/C running and pulling Sierra foothills mountain grades. But I've never had to deal with stop-n-go traffic in very high heat. I used the dual-temp fan sensor from the 318ti installed in the 6-cylinder swapped radiator, added one bottle of Redline Water Wetter, and the electric A/C fan kicks on like it should without any problems. In fact, the temp gauge needle doesn't even move. There are a bunch of "fan delete" threads on the BimmerForum site. Good luck! |
