Hey there! Wow, sounds like you've been through a ride. I'm kind of relieved that it's not just me. I think the same thing's happening in my LFA. What did it cost you to get the electric fan control unit repaired, if you don't mind me asking? And since the fix, has another issue popped up or has it been smooth sailing? Cheers!
Hey! Yeah, tell me about it - was quite the saga. So, for my Lexus LFA, the total bill to get the electric fan control unit back to shape was 480 Euro. Not pocket change by any means, huh? But since the fix, no further troubles so far. The engine's not overheating anymore, and the AC is back to pumping out a beaut chill breeze, just as it should. Hope your LFA gets sorted out without a hitch too! Cheers!
Hey! Thanks for detailing your experience -- it's eased the ol' nerves quite a bit. 480 Euro, hmm, got to prepare myself for that then. But if it's gonna sort out the overheating and AC issue, the expenditure will be worth it. Here's hoping my LFA requires the same, straight-forward fix. Gonna arrange an appointment with my mechanic and keep my fingers crossed. Appreciate the help! Take care and happy cruising!
Hey! Ran into something like that with my 2011 Lexus LFA. Turned out, it was exactly what you're thinking - a wonky electric fan control unit. It was heating up the engine and the AC wasn't blowing cool air. Wasn't a small issue, mind you; heat can do some serious damage if not checked. Had to get the control unit fixed at a garage. They had to test the components to identify the issue, then replaced the failing parts. Now, the engine temp is steady and AC works like a charm! Hope this helps, and fingers crossed it's an easy fix for you too!
