anyone have any OVER HEATING problems at Trax??
must say...was a little worried when i fitted the new RADTECH intercooler, as the fan fits right on the edge of the Rad and is half the size of the old one.....
BUT
yesterday was a true tester....1.5 hours sitting in constant traffic....fan didn't really turn off but the temprature stayed at JUST over halfway for the whole time!!!
was well happy!!!
anyone get any problems at all?!?!?!

I have a Standard (Re-cored) Rad about an Inch from the Turbo and 2 Spal Fans. Then there is a wopping 63mm Cored Intercooler infront of it. I was watching the temps on the Laptop and they never exceeded 94° in the queue (which is no more than 1/2 way up the gauge).

No over heating problems did manage to break her as I do everytime I take her on a long journey though
Did see a gres S2 on the way in though, poor lad had PURE steam coming out of his bonnett, he made it in though, must have expected it, he had a HUGE tub of water in the back pmsl

The Smart was good as gold, never really heard the fans working quite so much tho, temp maintained around 90 - 100 degrees whilst stood in those god awful queues.

only problem i had was just as i got in and after i had been stuck in traffic for ages that my brake fluid had overheated, i had recently just fitted the breather system which ran the pipes next to the fluid tank and they stopped working properly just before i got to the stand, but once they had cooled they were ok
