Overheating Issue and Ineffective Air Conditioning in 2021 Renault Arkana: Seeking Mechanic Visit Experiences

Hey all, I'm facing some issues with my 2021 Renault Arkana, it's a gasoline engine type and has run about 25,158 km. The AC is chucking out warm air and the car's overheating, making me suspect an impairment in the electric fan. Anyone here experienced anything similar with their ride and how was your mechanic visit? Would appreciate your insights. Cheers.

What should be the ideal engine water temperature?

Hi Mihai! The ideal engine coolant temperature for most cars is typically between 90°C and 105°C. However, this can vary slightly depending on the specific make and model of the vehicle. If the temperature is consistently higher than this range, it could indicate a problem with the cooling system. It's always a good idea to consult your vehicle's owner's manual or a professional mechanic for specific information about your car. Do you have any other questions?

So at the end of the day what could be the cause of the engine fan turning on for 10 seconds, then it stops and the cycle resumes the same cycle for 10 seconds. It does this when the engine is hot and when it's cold.

Hi Mihai! The fan's behavior you're describing could be due to a few different issues. It could be a faulty fan control relay, a malfunctioning coolant temperature sensor, or even a problem with the fan's motor itself. It's also possible that there's a software issue with the engine control unit (ECU). I would recommend having a professional mechanic perform a diagnostic test to pinpoint the exact cause. It's important to get this checked out, as improper fan operation can lead to overheating and potential engine damage. Please keep us updated on your progress. Do you have any other questions?
