  1. I had this problem with the control box under seat,but with mine it opened all the windows one night while asleep quite a shock when i woke in morning. Leon
  2. As taken from the Volkswagen VR6 Engine pocket mechanic manual A temp switch is fitted into the L.H side of the bottom radiator water tank to actuate the two-stage cooling fan. At a temp of 92c to 97c the first stage of the fan comes into operation(half speed). The second stage switches on when the temp of the coolant has reached 99c to 105c So it looks like you could have a faulty switch. Regards Leon (aka galaxychap)

  9. Hiya Guys, Ok with the nice weather shortly to arrive me thinks its about time i got my sunroof fixed i brought the gal 3 mths ago knowing it had a faulty roof but did nothing about it at the time because of the crap weather. My question is will the hole assembly come out without having to remove the headlining as the roof in my granada did as im sure the problem is just dirtyness if it aint that what else should i check and is there a common fault with these. Thank you
