Was driving home Wednesday and got about a mile from my house and had the GEN light and ERG light come on, figured I threw a belt. Got to look at it yesterday and it seems the fan bolts have worked their way loose and the fan has come off the front of the motor. Unknown damage at this point, there was never any banging or ratteling so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Looks like 4 days off at Thanksgiving are now booked.

I think all fans are the same: 2.0/1.8/1.7/vw bus....
only the timing marks are different. I've heard of it before. in fact a local (colorado) guy had it happen in the last couple of weeks. He was repairing it yesterday and found one of the screw threads stripped, or pins missing or something.... he had to pull the fan mounting hub off and put a new(used) one on. I think he half dropped his motor to get acess to it all. brant |
