The purpose of this thread is to detail my experiences with changing a fan clutch on my car. Symptoms of failure included higher than normal operating temperatures, strange idling vibrations, one overheating episode, and air conditioning not blowing cold when at idle.
There are a few different brands of clutch available, but in the end
I went with the Mercedes rebuilt. It is part number 111200042281. Lists for $116 at ecsTuning. I am more confident in the factory rebuild than in a Chinese new part.
I will also need some specialized tools, which I have ordered and will be posting pictures when they get here.
