Hi petaus.
VS V6s have a 2-speed fan. Its common for 1 speed to work & the other not. In other words the 1st stage is not working & when it gets extra hot the 2nd stage comes in later.
VS ECUs have a plug-in mem-cal but its probably the most reliabl |
If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

Have you checked the rest of the cooling system, at about 150,000 kms you may need to replace the water pump.

I would get the engine and radiator power flushed, before flushing use `mukowt` as per instruction and replace the thermostst.my vr has just had this done.
