Coolant fan activates at 110°

Unread post by Andelko_Strangar »

Hello everyone!
I resently bought used Citroen C3 mk2 2010 manufakturing year .
Engine is gassoline 1.4 peugeot tu3 54kw.

Strange thing to me on this car is that coolant fan first speed activates at 108-110° celsious..
Unlike same engine installed in older pezo 206 where thermostat opens at 89°C on this one it is declaret to 103°C.
Does this means that operating temperature for this model is higher than ususal?
Or this is some malfunction?

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Is the fan coming on at half speed or full speed?
