Hi guys correct me if I'm wrong but my car should have a viscous fan clutch (I recall my 230ce m103 had an electric one).
Anyone have a diy on how to replace this? From what I searched they call for belt removal but I don't understand why this is necessary surely you just undo the bolt holding the fan onto the pulley replace the clutch on the back of the fan and button up.
Am I missing something or does anyone have a decent diy?
Recall on my.230ce with the electromagnetic one it wasnt so hard.
In traffic car rises to 100c and i dont hear the fan roar ever seems to spin at same speed regardless, not done the carrot test yet that I read so much about
