Hello
I've only had my w124 a couple of weeks but I noticed that it does seem to run a bit hot, although the temp gauge stays normal. However I noticed today that when I started it with the bonnet up the fan was bearly turning and could stopped completely with the lightest touch so I'm guessing that its the viscous fan coupling.
My two questions are where is the best place to get a replacement, I had a quick look on europarts but they do not stock anything for my year (1990). Is there a particular brand that is better?
Secondly is it ok to drive still? I drive manily on duel carriage ways, so hopefully will be able to get a good airflow through.
Cheers
Chris
