I have a quick question--
It is about 31degrees celc here...and when I turn my car off after being driven for a little while. I can still hear a 'fan' sort of sound. It's really loud, and goes on for about ten minutes.. Is it just cooling itself down? Does it have something to do with the A/C ? I am just a bit worried because I have to drive 5hrs tomorrow alone, and really don't want it to overheat..
Anyone have ANY idea what I'm talking about ??
Thank-You!!

 

It's the fan.

Working as intended, same thing happening here.

In B.C. right now its been 32-36 for the past week :P

 

perfectly normal - don't worry about it .

 

Phew! So it's normal.. This car has been a complete LEMON for me... I'm just waiting for the next thing to fall apart .. Thanks for the reply!

 

So it works as normal, but you don't understand so = It's a Lemon?

You're weird.

She had problems with it in the past.

 

/\ the car can be very reliable - but they can't be treated like a piston engine unfortunately .

You actually need to drive it hard (and maintain it well) to make it last - does not make sense but that is the reality ....

 

Ohh.. you have NO idea how much money I've put into this car.. and I haven't even 'supped it up' I bought it WITHOUT a block heater.. had to get one 'specially installed' because Mazda Dealership wouldn't do it... NOW, when I turn the tire verrrry slightly I hear this clunking sound.. and it feels as if my tire is loose. I got it checked.. buuuut nothing.
bah, I am trying to enjoy it as much possible... Lets pray that nothing happens this weekend when I go on my trip
I don't want my friend's Honda Civic owning me!!!

 

Rather it is just like a woman, so you will never understand what is going on.


Or rather, it is a spaceship, so the fan you are hearing is its actually about to take off. Keep clear!!!

 

I don't think this guy has a girlfriend to 'understand' hehehe..

 

....To the moon Alice!!!!!

 

One day...one day....I just dream of such wallet drainage....

 

clunk could be a bad endlink.

 

""Wallet Drainage.."" Wow, you surely DO NOT have a girlfriend.. nor ever will with that attitude.. tsk tsk... You obviously haven't been looking in the right places.. if you think us girls as 'Wallet Drainers'.....

 

Don't live in such a cold place - problem solved


may also be nothing - might just be brake pads moving around

 

Ok, so now down to the dirty work, what year is your car? how many miles? and what are your mods?

 

Well, if you have been keeping up with the threads, I do have a gf, and she is on here with an 8, and was the sweetest little vixen last night and I couldn't be happier. So try again...

 

My girlfriend buys me stuff all the time... I actually SAVE money with her.

Cept when I buy her nice things :P

 

It's a really bad Thunking sound and you can actually feel the whole car shift.... It could be brake pads I guess...
It's a 2006 with 48,000Kms.
And for moving to a warmer place... Yeah.. I really should.. but I'm stuck here for a while, so I gotta get my car 'winterized' for those -45celc days. *Shivers*...
Thanks for the help though!!

 

Good!! Then STOP talking bad about us!!

 

If you want the help, you gatta answer the questions.

 

Haha, That's cute!

 

Maybe your car is shuttering at the thought of having to go through another winter? Poor car!

 

You started the thread with a fan going on. Now you are talking about a thunking sound. Are these related or seperate? And if they are seperate, what causes the thunking sound, i.e. braking, accelerating, etc...?

 

Awe! I know... the past winter almost owned her.. The motor flooded.. I had to go start it every hour during work--- buut I got nice winter tires
