About 9 months ago I had a CEL pop up because of the thermostat. The cars operating temperature was at about 192 instead of 190. Had the thermostat replaced and when I drove home from the mechanic, the large and smaller radiator fan turned on after turning the car off. They stayed on for 15 seconds and then turned off. Winter hit me and the temperatures dropped and this stopped happening. Now its getting warmer again and the radiators will do this for no longer than 15 seconds. I went back to the mechanic today to have it all checked out. He showed me a technical bulletin, just curious if anyone else has seen this. He ran all sorts of tests on the car and it was not throwing any codes and had no issues at all.
