radiator fan not working properly
I have an SL 55AMG 03 the radiator fan is not spinning at full speed. It seems to be at half speed and not cooling the engine properly. Is this something that can be fixed or do I have to replace the fan? Thank you for any help

Did you do any tests on a scanner? If it's an issue I'd replace it.

Sounds like the motor is on its way out. There are other tests you can do of course, but I think it's just easier to replace.
