[QUOTE="jmgrif, post: 949254, member: 17460"] Me too! My 08 started doing the same thing while on a trip two years ago. Stopped at a dealer who after a quick look said everything looked fine and as long as the fans came on and I wasn't losing fluid it was OK! Now a buddy with an 09 started having similar problems last year so I have decided to get and install a new thermostat and will be checking the rad very carefully for ingested crud. It was also suggested,"with a doubtful look", that it (could) be the impeller and when I dump the coolant I could pull the cover and look for possible wear problems there? After a little more thought the service manager agreed it is more likely the therostat. I wonder if I risk bending or damaging the rad fins with a pressure wash? Anyone have a bad experience?
