Default 02 A4 3.0 Fan Problems

Ive been reading on here and i guess there are a number of owners who have had similar problems? My high speed fan ALWAYS comes on, if i just turn the car on and its cold, the highspeed fan comes on, if ac is on or off, it comes on. If im driving on the freeway and im in heavy traffic it will cycle on and off conitnuously. I've heard that it could be the fan control module? I was wondering if anyone knew a part number for it? i have an extended warranty but hell they dont cover a damn thing, i would need to shoot a piston through my motor before they fixed anything. Anyways, any help would be great..

yet another disgruntled 3.0 a4 owner..

Default You might need to replace the small green "temperature sending unit"

I had the problem you described one year ago - the rad fan would come on full speed (sounded like a leaf blower) immediately after the car was started. The problem was fixed under warranty by replacing the following parts:

TEMPSENDER - V059 919 501 A
SEAL - VN 903 168 02

Several members here discussed this issue around Feb of last year. Fourwheelslide had the same issue and posted a "do it yourself" repair write-up. Note: I believe all the cars previously experiencing this issue were 1.8Ts, hence the part numbers above might be different for the 3.0.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/792737.phtml">Temp Sending Unit DIY fix for 1.8T</a></li></ul>
