I just replaced both of my fans a month ago on my 2008 ex. I went with TYC fans from Rockauto. The job was pretty easy. I did everything from above. The hardest part was getting the wires unclipped off the bottom of the passenger side fan. I removed my battery and tray as well as metal bar in front. There is one bolt at the bottom (most are at the top) to remove that metal bar/beam/crossmember thing but if you remove the battery and tray it’s easy to get at from the top.

Pros: easy installation

Cons: hard to unclip wires

Vehicle: Honda Civic

Fan operation:

Ended up being both fans went out, the relay was bad, and the condenser needed replacing (no refrigerant left). I bought the car with no a/c so diagnosed as I went along. If your windows work, I would have waited for rock auto or Amazon, because no way am I paying for inferior parts from AutoZone. I buy Denso/Nissens/TYC (in a pinch) only for my cars, don't want to deal with failure rates of non OEM.

Pros: prefer OEM parts

Cons: inferior parts from AutoZone

Sou dono de uma, dependendo do uso que vai dá pra ela, é uma moto super tranquila de se ter, a minha tá chegando nos 48 mil km rodados, apresentou um problema de compressão, no qual não conseguia segurar a marcha lenta e a ventoinha parou uma vez, tive que fazer a substituição da mesma, de resto é uma moto super tranquila.

Pros: moto super tranquila

Fan operation:

I have a 2014 Tundra and had my unit go out. I believe it to be heat related because I found the cooling fan on the unit not to be working. I blew it out with compressed air and it has come back to life ( was out for about a week). Out of caution, I am going to replace the fan.

Pros: came back to life

Cons: heat related, fan not working

Vehicle: Toyota Tundra
