Thanks for the hint. I would assume however that the engine and radiator temps are pretty much similar considering that the water circulating in between is a good thermal vector.

Anyone experienced blinking gear indicators ? Is this just a gremlin or the sign of a real gearbox problem ?

Any easy way to diagnose the window switch vs relay problem ?

Appreciate the help !

Ze Shark, FYI, the gauge on the dash gets it's signal from a sensor on the engine while the fan gets it signal to turn on/off from a sensor in the radiator.

Just got my GTS F1 back from the dealer, new left manifold <sigh> and left transmission axis hose.
Week-end drive through the alps and down to Monza, a few new gremlins. Anyone seen/resolved these ?
- gear indicator flashing in 4th then 3rd and 4th, at a period of about 1s, consistently. Had seen it once before while lapping Monza
- left radiator fan (the one I can hear well), starts and stops all the time when in slow trafic, although the engine was well below 90degC
- driver window switch or relay starts showing sign of episodic malfunction.
Advice appreciated.

There are days I'd swap for a Porsche if they were looking better ...
