My Xantia is overheating. It would appear that the fans in the front are not kicking in, so on a freeway it is fine, but in traffic the temp goes up very quickly and if very hot, Need to stop and switch off. It also seems to use water although I never see steam coming out of the radiator cap - there is a deposit around one of the hose seals, which may be a leak.
I suspect that this is a problem with the switch which is referred to in the Haynes manual as the 'Biltron' switch. Question is:
How difficult is this to get to and check/change ( Haynes seem to indicate that this is not easy!) How much should a new one cost If I let a garage do it, is it an expensive item ?
Many thanks,
