This is the first I've heard about this. The fan definately works, and usually kicks in after about 45 min - hour of motorway driving, or if I'm stuck in slow moving traffic it starts whirring after about 20 minutes.
I've had my local mechanic look at it when he fitted a new radiator, but I stupidly gave it to him without any petrol in so he couldn't run it long enough to get the temperature up.
Any body got any thoughts on this?

yes i have a thought on this ,the mg in their name must stand for my guess
the fan is designed to kick in only on higher temps it should kick in at 104/105 then it will stop when back down to 96/7 as lond as the fan isnt running when engine is turned off then all should be ok with the cooling system the fan is a 2 speed replace the resistor but if the fan isnt running on after turning engine off i would say the the fan is ok
