Removing Fan Clutch

Asked by ISstudent1125 Jun 15, 2018 at 01:07 PM about the 2003 BMW 3 Series 325i Sedan RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2003 BMW 325i and I am replacing the
pump pulley and radiator. However I am stuck on
removing the clutch fan. I have the tool to hold the
pump pulley however not having any luck loosing
up the fan. I keep getting confused looking stuff up
on which way to go with the wrench. Is it like a
normal nut, or do I go counter clockwise?

1 Answer

You would turn them counter clockwise to loosen like any other bolt. Don't get confused with the bolts being backwards to your location in front of the car.
