I just replaced the fan assembly and car still spits coolant out the reservoir after driving any suggestion's? Thanks for the replies so far, but no bubbles and I know it may not matter but I changed thermostat 1 yr. ago the fan does come on I was thinking maybe hoses are collapsing? I've put a lot of money into this car, brakes, radiator, abs modal, wheel bearings, more than I paid for it,

Do you have bubbles coming up through the coolant when the engine is running? If so, you probably have a blown head gasket. If not, you can try changing the thermostat.

Does the fan come on when the engine warms up?

hi, i have similar problems, fan is starting about 106 C and switching off abou 96 C so then i'm loosing about half liter of cooling fluid every week and i don't know where??? i was calling to volvo and they tell me that i can visit volvo to change my fan for free till y.2030...but i don't know if is problem only in fan or they will also reflash ecu with new software and new smaller temperature of switching on the fan. but looks like big problem of these cars...
