Title: Noisy cooling fans
Post by Nunnspoet on May 7^th, 2016, 11:25am

The cooling fans are working just fine however they are really quite noisy. Does anyone out there know how to get them to operate quietly again?

Oh yes, are the fans the same across the range?

Hi there

Use a straw to direct the oil into the fan bearing.
Turn the fan by hand until well coated with oil.

A bit late but thank you 8)

They have gone quiet - I squirted lubricating oil at the bearings and left the car pointing downhill. It seems to have done the trick however I think I will follow your advice anyway :D
