Blower motor

On my 2012 C300, my blower motor is starting to make some noise. As I will be selling it soon, I'm not so sure that I want to replace it. That said, I'm just curious, has anyone ever taken out the motor, greased it up and then put it back and have the issue go away?

Just wondering if it's worth my time to attempt to silence it. It works fine and from what I read on MBW, it can last quite a while with it making noise, so just curious. Thanks

Last year took out and lubed. It worked. This year, it again it started to make noise. Lubing didn't help, so I replaced it with a blower that I found on EBay for $30 (new). Will see how long it lasts. Its working for now.

Thank you. For whatever reason just when I went to lube it the motor decided to stop making noise. I'll take that win though. 😂

That said I'll keep this in mind. Danke.
