Sounds like cold start is at fault . You do really need to put what engine you need information on , put it in your profile ,or in the question .

Is the fan clutch mechanical like a 300E or electric like a 190E?

Not sure ill have to check it out a bit further, seems to have a large mounting which I would assume could be an electro magnet.
So if the temp sensors are gone then cold start would be bad and overheating could be a problem as well because the fan is not locking up???

the 230E uses an electromagnet clutch

Do one of these sensors operate the fan
