    Hey,

    So I've just bought my very first Copen and I love it already

    I've noticed tho that when I put my heater on my fan attached to the radiator under the bonnet turns on and spins for about 10 seconds and then stops for about the same and then repeats over and over again. Is this normal? I only thought the fan come on when the car over heats? It's very noisy and only happens when I turn the heating on in the car. Il try and attach the video I took so you can see what I mean.



    Many thanks

    The fan will switch on when the AC switches on.
    Maybe something to do with that.

    Ours do this when AC is on - fan comes on for a bit, then switches off for bit, this repeats. I don't think it's a worry as it's barely noticeable from inside.

    Thank for the replies, it's a relief to know that it's normal.
