car fan always turns on every time after drive
Hi Guys,
New F80 m3 owner here. I noticed that EVERYTIME I finish a drive 20-30 min, and park the car, the fan in front of radiator turns on for about 2 min. I assume it's to cool the car down, but I've never seen this on my old m3 (e90 V8). We're currently in the winter season and I'm concerned that when it gets really hot in the summer, the car will need to cool down for even longer. Having the electric fan turned on is hard on the battery, especially every time I finish a drive. Just want to hear from you guys if this is normal... |

doesn't sound right. you should rid yourself of that car before it breaks. actually, i'll take it off your hands!
i kid, i kid. it's normal. don't fret. the fan will come on VERY loud if something is actually wrong (in most cases anywho)
