I don't know if the 4 bangers have a electric fan or not but those of you with the V6 may want to check your engine fan. It's the one fitted to the engine side of the radiator. While I was working on the Mig today I had to remove the small under tray from the front of the engine. I was underneath looking up running wires to sort out a electrical issue I've been having with the headlights. As I was looking for a route I noticed the 3 nuts holding the fan to it's mounting were almost falling off. Somebody may of messed around with the fan and that's why their loose but if not then over time they've vibrated loose and almost let the fan make a break for freedom. So the next time you've got ya heed under the Mig just take a look and make sure the 3 nuts are tight. Only takes 2 minutes with a 10mm socket.
