No there's no need to remove the inlet manifold. You may want to remove that coolant pipe though.

Thanks chaser. I will document for posterity.

Happy to do so - those natives that can read the post will no doubt be appreciative.

Hi all

Looking for a kind soul to provide a picture of the locations of the 2 temp sensors on an R 5, which I propose to change as the fans stay on when the vehicle is switched on but not running - which I understand from reading around the subject is likely caused by duff sensors. If anyone knows whether changing both is necessary, and how to, that would also be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Bassist i too had the same problem as you fan was coming on when ignition key was in thus would drain the battery after a while if engine not started, The code i was getting was for the temp sensor (over temp) which i had replaced under warranty but this did still not rectify the problem, The problem with mine was a wiring fault, I think the sensor was about £30 but the dealership that done mine took the manifold off so i had to replace gaskets etc.

Thanks - will let you know. What/where was the wiring fault?

 

[Bassist]

That guy got totally rinsed. What a tool.

I think it was a wire that went to the sensor had chaffed and was shorting out or something along them lines, Not sure where your located but i
can recommend volksautos in Croydon, Excellent customer service and very reasonable rates etc, check out their website.

Now replaced by a mechanic- could not get to the thing with the inlet manifold on. Huge improvement and got to clean out the egr at the same time (though not sure whether the sensor or the egr clean did most to improve the running).

Thanks again for all help.

All sorted now then Bassist

The coolant temperature sensor G62 is located under the inlet manifold behind the oil filter housing. The other coolant temperature sensor G83 is in the radiator outlet hose, lower drivers side.
