Well, the dealership finally did as I ask (after 2 weeks) and replaced the IC pump which took care of my SC cutting out. Now comes something interesting, during their quest to repair the SC, they replaced a temp sensor and put in a new electronic control chip. My engine temp used to run right at to just above the center mark consistantly, NOW is stays below center and fluctuates between the center and the next line down. It never reaches the next line down but comes very close. Granted it has been 45 -52 degrees here in Jersey since I got the car back but 80mph and 60 mile treks keep it at that position. I know it was running higher before service so something they did made the difference. Just thought I would throw that out to you guys and see if maybe there is another way to lower the engine temp without the spacers and thermosate (or at least in conjuction with)

 

Does your service paperwork show the part/part number that they used?

yea lets see the pn for this new control chip.

 

Here is a copy of the paperwork with the replacement part numbers.

 

I know the C32 guys can make the cooling fan come on sooner.

I would ask your tech if he can do that for you.

 

The Part Number For The Sensor They Replaced Is For The Intake Air Temp. They Replaced The Pcm Maybe They Changed Something When The Flashed The New Pcm......

 

Here is the part they replaced

 

Have any of you guys with the ECU re-flash had the fan set for lower turn on temp? Has anyone asked if it could be done? I havent had mine done yet but will have the temp lowered if they can do it. I plan on using InMotion and will contact them to see if they can do this. I'll let you know.
