youmust ride confor for bmw r series and cup motors

Ooohh the sound.

Thank you!!! Brilliant tutorial and really helpful for me 😊

hello from Greece. could you write about your windscreen? thanks

Hello😊 please can you tell me how you cleaned everything up to make it work again, as I've managed to remove it all from the car but have no idea how you cleaned it and what with. I'm just a trying to fix it like you have, your instructions were brilliant at getting it out, now I just want to clean it up and do a bodge as you call it like you have. 😊

Anyone done this for a R172 2012 model? Doesn’t seem as straight forward. I removed the screws and slid the clips but it didn’t drop like in this video. 🙈

Your RT drives on the false side.. ?! :-D Good luck, enjoy your bike

Late to the party, but thank you, my cabin blower sounds like a Spitfire taking off on full chat. Pretty sure you've saved me hundreds of pounds.

THANKYOU - you just saved my daughter over £400 - lifesaving video!

BEST VIDEO EVER to remove blower fan assembly (and I have a 350, same parts)! You even show how to get the stinking connectors apart, which when you're contorted into position under the dash seems impossible. Suggestions to others who remove the housing: 1- Have a pan under the motor; I had about two cups of water in the housing when it dropped which is now under the carpet; and 2- I drilled two 1/8 inch holes in the housing, one under the fan motor itself and one under the control unit, as "weep" holes so that (hopefully) the water will never accumulate in the housing again. I'd rather sacrifice the carpet than the motor.

Really useful video. Glad I found this, as I’m going sort through fan on my wife’s 200 today 👍🏾

Thank you so much. I can do it by myself later. From Seoul ~

I like that gear noise in 1st and 2nd gear, mine has it too...

thanks great video, I used this to change the resistor and made the job a lot easier than i thought. Although i think the new Resistor is faulty. So will need to do this all again

That's a beautiful sound!

Great video, thank you

First class instructions Thank you

somebody tell me why this bike is too cheap

Good man, Thank you so much 👍👍👍

Lindo paseo

The mounting gives a very nice view ! Note to self: must clean the screen on my R850RT ...

Nice well talked through, you beat the system

Thanks a loot!

Унылое видео. Хоть бы топнул разок.

At 5-44 when you stopped to allow that car through I would've run a screwdriver down the side of every car to my left blocking the street

Good ride

So How to remove the fan and motor from rubber vibration mount in housing ? Im stuck on this

Nice ride, thanks. Good luck.

I have the same bike in Red. It's a 2000. It will never be for sale as long as I can still ride it.

Very useful thank you so much

looks like granny forgot her bread in magasine and trying to get it asap

I love my Boxer!

Do you have to remove the entire dash on the passenger side to get the glove box out of my 2006 slk280

Thanks for your explanation. It did help very much and with some help from W40 it works all fine again. With a screwdriver + W40 you can release the rubber lugs easily.

Very nice Vid... I like the way you ride... Thanks, Gordon

Here's a link to a nice review of the 1100RT - bikedawg.blogspot.co.za/2013/03/bmw-r1100rt.html

Thank you! Huge help and worked great!

Hi, my radiator fan in my 2006 SLK55 not running.. dealer quoted a bomb to replace. Wonder if u can advice how to remove the fan as I have ordered same, this will be my first DIY job.. thanks and appreciate .

Thanks, this worked for my slk230. I was able to lube the bearing and clean the armature for a now working fan. Need a new switch at some point but it blows fast enough for now.

Thanks for this video, I will give it a go, I have a 2005 SLK350, I presume the assembly should be the same. The blower stopped working. Hope I can fix it and save a few hundred dollars. Had a couple of instances where the drain got clogged in a storm and water got into the car via the air/ac vents. fingers crossed.

My 2000 R1100RT doesn't clunk at all, not even into first. Just snik, snik, snik, snik, cruzn in fifth.

Can I ask how old your bike is ? Lovely clear screen btw 😂

I have exactly the same problem. Every couple of months or so, I remove the leaves from the fan by gaining access via the battery compartment. This time, the fan has stopped working so I will go through the same steps as you. I've changed the pollen filter several times so don't expect there to be any unusual problems unless the fan motor is shot. The design of this system is a disgrace. I hope Mercedes read this and respond, they should re-design it and have a recall. However, we all know that they won't do that. They would rather charge an arm and a leg to repair it. Excellent video! Have you considered fitting a screen between the battery compartment and the fan to reduce the amount of leaves getting to the fan? A drain from the fan and pollen filter might help, but the real solution is to stop the leaves and water getting into the system. I haven't started my rant about rattles and leaks, but that's another subject.

Quality is the best, only GoPro. Pozdrawiam!

Thank you for this video! My blower just up and quit the other day after working fine. Found this and it sure made the job of removing it easy. Mine was clean in there, no obvious problems, blower spins easily and worked fine when connected to a battery directly. Reading the Regulator / Resistor is a common problem. Hoping so just ordered an OEM Behr to replace it. Not sure what I will do if this does not get it working again?

good one I go up and dawn that road a lot dawn the m11i miss the model shop wot was therr I go up and dawn therr on my Suzuki bandit 600n but I may be looking at a BMW 1100RT soon thay look cool bikes

Beautiful! I have got a 2002 R 850 RT: does yours makes a "clack" sound when you shift gear?

great video did it this morning took 20 minutes and saved a fortune

watching it in silent mode and playing "Jimi Hendrix - All Along The Watchtower" on the background..... relax..... haha

Thanks for the video . It helped me remove the fan motor assembly on my wife's SLK350. I cleaned it and sanded the back of the blower wheel where it was hitting the housing. You video was a big help!
