I know that this is a bit of a change on the subject but i gave a 200 and after some nasty tinking noises my fan has given up the goast, what is the easiest way to get to and remove the fan?
It is prob full of mud i have always liked playing in water and i have had the sterio underwater when getting stuck one time.

if its the same as the 300, you can, with a bit of fiddling, take just the fan out. take the bottom fascia cover out of the passenger footwell, and you should see the fan unit. on the underside of that is the actual fan, and its held in with 3 screws. there is a cable running over it that is a bit of a pain, but if you undo the screws and give it a tap, it will come out with the cable held to the side.

mine was full of mud last year. took it out, cleaned it and let it dry and gave it a good dose of wd40 and it worked again. this year however i had to replace the whole fan unit, as that was choka with mud too.


hope that helps.
