Lost the 7 blade fan motor this summer, (open windings, not bearings) while this was going on. Glad I have 2 radiators.

250k miles on the fans, probably too much to ask, especially in AZ.

It's early for this, maybe we will see over 120 degrees this year!

One word - move.
Too hot.

How has your passenger side airbag cover held up in the heat? I have two cars that came from Virginia and one cover was trashed and the other is still decent. I replaced the trashed cover though.

Here in Ohio, its been pretty mild to start the summer. It was in the low 80's a couple times this week and today should be a high of 75 and sunny. I would take that heat over the snow we get here though.

It's cracked of course. Last year, at my house, we got a max temp of 119, and a min temp of 26. The car sits outside. That'll finish off a cover in short order. In the heat, the cracks are almost invisible, in the cold, it's about .125".

Here for 20 years, I love it. Heat over snow, (and salt) any day.


Probably going to get another FAL490 fan for this car, like my 2004. I think I might have an idea or two to kill the vibration and harmonics, if not the overall noise. Hard to beat the value with anything else.
