Intercooler fan disassembly

[ryanv]

Im trying to take off the Intercooler fan. I've taken every bolt off and it won't come off, does anyone have the exploded view?

There are three bolts that hold the fan to a metal bracket/ring with nuts on the inside that you can't get to on the car. There are three 13mm (head size) bolts that hold it to the lower pulley. Remove these outer bolts and then tap the fan off with a plastic mallet (carefully). Or, pry carefully with a small flat blade screwdriver. They kinda press onto the lower pulley.

I had the three bolts apart I was just worried about breaking the fan, it came off after a little persuation. Thanks

So, do you only need to remove the three outer bolts to pop the fan loose? Or do they all need to come out for removal?

Just the 3 outer bolts
