Folk,
My wife reported some unusual noise from her 95 S6 and no A/C. I check out
the car last night... everything seems fine. Get it up to operating temp
with a drive, still no problems. Looking at the primary fan I see it
turning maybe 60 rpm with the engine idling. Stops with the touch of bit of
plastic scrap. No huge play in the clutch but I suspect its dead. Any
BTDT on the list?
With the fan blades off I can easily get a big 32" spanner on the clutch.
Anyone removed it by holding the pulley with rubber filter strap or similar?
Regards
