Decklid Airflow Poll
#16
Dock is correct. The poll is flawed because it does not address whether mods were done...just year of car. Plus you should have asked if the fan blows or sucks...LOL

Did my best.
My mod changed the flow of air...and I think that was a problem. Hence the poll..

I got this light a few weeks ago on a drive, figured it was the fan itself (might have ingested a bit of spray paint ), car is an 01 so I'll have to check the polarity tomorrow when I get back to the office, thanks for the heads up.

raineycd it is normal. For 40 minutes the ECU is taking care of the engine compartment temperature. As soon the temp. is reaching 172F it will start and stop to keep it under 172F...

Thanks for the info!!!
#25
just had my GT2 decklid installed it came with new wire from mashaw but it is now blowing air out instead of pulling it in as it did when stock, anyone have an easy fix for this?
#26
just for general info since this is the turbo section and it doesn't apply to your cars but it could be a source for some of the confusion...the 996 GT3's have a decklid exhaust fan that only comes on when the engine compartment is quite warm and it removes hot air from the compartment (blows out)...it will usually come on after you shut the engine off and is meant to prevent heat soak

The deck lid fan on all 996 Turbos pulls air through the deck lid and blows it over the engine. The air exits below the engine.

not on mine - never has.
