Nice video pretty helpful

TonyS says:

This was a fantastic video. Instructions were excellent. I want to share a development that I experienced and viewers should be aware of since the e39 is getting older and corrosion sets in. The two 13m nuts holding the fan auxiliary on passenger side could become a problem (9:009:15). The bolt that these nuts fastened onto are not set and begin turning. There is no access to get to the bolt head. It wouldn't matter anyway as they are flat and round. I have no idea why these bolts are not welded to the frame. Long story short, I had to saw off the nut after failing to use an extractor. My bolts are still long enough to rest the new auxiliary fan in place but I need to figure something out to secure secure it. It is a total PITA , everything was going so smooth too. Driver side nuts were not problem. I believe this happen because this side is susceptible to anti-freeze getting all over place when bleeding the system.

Don't you check before replacement, many years of service work hard lessons taught me to do that before reassembly?

Hey there! I’m seeing this video is 11 months old, was just wondering if the fan is still running strong? The one in your link is significantly cheaper than all the other brands and I’d love to save a hundred bucks if the part is still reliable

Michael Aaron Cruz says:

very helpful and i loved the video! Though I was wondering if I needed a new fan when my fan is weak causing the car to overheat and theres a leak through the cooling system. Do you any advice on a beginner regarding this issue? 🙂 Thank you!

Agusta Jensen says:

I did this and my new fan is not working either

Alhasn Abukres says:

Thank you so much

Dave says:

Great video man! I like the simplicity and clear instruction of how to complete this without any extra non relevant commentary that other you tubers tend to add. I’ll be attempting this today. Thanks!

Any easy way to stop the fan shroud catching the fan ?
