These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello Porsche owners. I'm a proud owner of a 99 coupe with 70k miles like to introduce myself. names Fred live on the Sunshine Coast BC Canada, near Vancouver. I owned a 79 sc coupe years ago. just got this car a few days ago and am having great fun driving it. looking forward to sharing info on this forum. question Are you people running this Hot?

POST 2Original post

welcome, and congrats. others can chime in, but i'm running just above 180, so perhaps 190? PL

POST 3Original post

Mine settles just barely above 180. I'd guess 190 as well.

POST 4Original post

Congrats on your purchase! If I saw my temp in that range during normal driving conditions, I would be concerned. You might try cleaning your radiators and verifying that your radiator fans are operational.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

idling in the driveway at about 170, I'm not hearing fans, do they click on at a certain temperature ? are they east to hear ? I imagine they are at the front behind each radiator, radiators look clean Thanks

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

ok, got a flashlight and had a look, neither fan is running at 170, so a different fuse for each fan I imagine that is not the problem. hopefully just a relay or ?

POST 7Original post

Mine runs almost that hot in traffic, but between the 8 and 0 on highway. My fans kick on about there, or sooner if I turn on the compressor.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

OK drove to my girlfriends house 30 mins. checked fans when i got there, one was working left one wasn't, checked fuses and left front was blown, replaced it, so should be good from now i hope.

POST 9Original post

Relays and fan motors are items that fail fairly regularly.

POST 10Original post

Welcome to the board! In slow traffic mine is generally in middle or just to right of center on the "0". On highway around the right side of "8". Pete

POST 11Original post

Congrats And mine is also usually right smack dab in the middle of the 0

POST 12Original post

Welcome and congratulations on the purchase Looks to be a clean example. Now let the modifications begin.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

i have an alternator whine through stereo, car has the hifi option will start by checking connections at back of stereo, any one have advice on getting this thing out?

POST 14Original post

On mine, middle of 0 is 200 and where your needle is 209-210 ish (I get live reading via obd). Sitting in traffic on a 90+ days I do get to that temp but very rare. Clean out radiators? Add 3rd radiator? I wouldn't be concerned at that temp though.

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

one of the radiator fans was not working, blown fuse , replaced yesterday now its running cooler with both fans running, still gets hot in traffic, but not as hot, some of the hottest weather of the year right now here in BC Canada. Reminds me of my sport bike, hates to go slow and gets hot when it does

POST 16Original post

You need a set of porsche radio tools to get the stereo out. eBay or Amazon for cheap.
