w126 500SE

Hey, guys!

I think my car has another problem well at least i hope not!
The problem is, when i'm driving at about 60-80 the temp is between 80 and 90 when i go 100mph or fater the temp climbs to about 100 C or a bit over, the previous fan blade i had which was a 6 blade, the faster i went the cooler the engine got, the slower i went the hotter the car got--not with a 9 blade it seems like the opposite effect!! any tips ?!

thanks in advance!

Enrique

keep it

uner 90. i think that your system may be operating normally. or just a little weak. perhaps your rad is a little plugged.

I have the same problem with my 240D over 100.

Seriously, it does sound like a clogged radiator. The fan should be irrelevant at speed. How about flushing your coolant system?
