Description
The fan clutch varies the speed at which the fan spins based on the temperature of the engine. Slipping, fan wobble, binding, or fan that won’t spin at the correct speed, are symptoms of a bad fan clutch. Located behind the fan on some Volkswagen and Audi models, this clutch should be inspected and replaced at the same time as the water pump, as both age at the same rate.Sometimes fan clutch replacement requires specialty tools. Browse the tool section of Euromotiv to get all of the appropriate tools needed for replacement.
