Ever since, I’ve topped up shell at first, then learnt that tesco was good enough too.
Last month, out of desperation, I had to top up £5 of Asdas petrol. Then, not knowing that Texaco’s petrol quality may be similar to Asda’s I filled up another £20. And then the good old problems started again.However this time, I’ve been getting only 1 symptom, where the fan goes crazy only when I drive the car for a long while or floor it for a short while. Even after 2 full tanks of V-power, this fan problem was not going. Weirdly enough I didn’t experience the other initial symptoms of bad fuel but even the good fuel isn’t helping.
What makes it even more wierd is when the engine heats, the fan goes crazy to the point my damn sidemirrors start shaking and when it cools, the fan slows down back to normal.
I am very confused because although my problem may have been caused by bad petrol, I’m not sure whether thats the underlying cause of my problems now.
Whats even more weird is my coolant levels fine, and when the fan goes crazy I ‘suspect’ the engine overheats but according to my thermostat, my engines nice and normal.
So who is the criminal under my bonnet guys?
