Just to let everybody know that my cooling fans have packed up again...........The car has only done just over 20K and they were 1st changed under warranty @ about 14k (free of charge). This time the stealers quoted £580.00 to get them fixed (my cars an import so it only had a 2 year warranty). But I insisted that this was unacceptable as the fans only lasted 6 to 7000 miles. In the end VW paid 70% off the total bill, which was I thought was ok. From now ok im going to leave my climate control system in Eco Mode and I think its the aircon that keeps packing the fans up, ho hum.

I've just had the same problem. Dealer has advised that I contact VW Customer Care as this is a known fault! :angry:
Although it's the first time I've experienced it in 66K miles. I'm 7 months out of warranty on a 52 plate PD 150. :sad:
I've spoken to VW who are liaising with my dealer - let's see what they say :rolleyes:

Well I've been offered 30% Parts & Labour towards the cost by VW :cry:
Not exactly what I was hoping for :wink: but it's better than nothing :rolleyes:

How did you realise that your fans were packed in, is there a way to test?

Ive read in another forum about fan cooling problems, i think its mostly for models with climate control...
