hello guys,
i am currently having nightmare with my fan coupling. the story:
car overheats in traffic so i spotted fan doesnt rotate therefore I got a fan coupling (magnetic) from euro car parts for 48 quid. Right i took the fan off it is held on one bolt. then there are 4 torx T30 bolts to take off. I took 3 and i ruined one (the head of it is almost round i couldnt do it but thats another story). then i started the engine and i realised the axis which comes out and which the fan is connected with actually rotates just the fan has that bearing inside it which prevents it from rotating? what can i do? any suggestions.
the part i got is called fan coupling but seems very odd and i dont think its wrong as the axis spins , is it a new fan what i need, cheers everybody!!!
