This video shows how I removed the Engine Cooling Fan from my 2003 Mercedes SL500. Apologies for the rough video at times, filmed on hand held phone camera
Thank you for this video. I just started doing this this evening and got to the stage where one can’t extricate the fan because of those pipes in the way left and right. I messed about for ages thinking “there must be a way to wiggle it out at some sort of angle”…..but no, you’re right. I feel that frustration. Anyway, darkness has descended upon the UK, so it will have to wait until tomorrow! I’ve taken the two bolts off clamping the radiator and a/c condenser together. Does anything else need to come off to move the radiator away to get at removing he a/c condenser? At the moment the rad still feels fixed somewhere at the bottom? Thanks again.
