FridgeFreezer Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Do you mean the temperature switch for the fan? The switch-on temperature will be whatever was written on it, and will be the same wherever you stick it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkbeef Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 No, I mean what engine tempreture should the fan be set to switch on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonp Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 The standard 300 tdi thermostat has a temp of 88 deg C stamped on it so you need the fan to switch on slightly greater that that otherwise it will be on all the time.Regards Jonathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
errol209 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 No, I mean what engine tempreture should the fan be set to switch on. About 5 or more degrees higher that your radiator thermostat opens at, so about 90 - 95oC. There have been a few threads on this this year, if you have a search.
