That is the cleanest E36 engine bay I have ever seen.

@aLex0kain Three suggestions come to mind: 1) Rubber mallet to the wrench might help get the fan off. 2) Pay attention to the route of the belt, making a sketch for when you install the new one. 3) We have some other related videos that might be helpful for your project. Thanks again for contacting us, and best of luck on your project. (OH - wear safety glasses when under the car, and follow all other safety precautions on your owner's manual or service manual.)

I remove the upper radiator hose to gain better access, then use a large adjustable wrench on the fan nut and a 10 mm box-end wrench to hold one of the pulley nuts in place. Easy peasy. Having the radiator hose off also helps with putting the fan back on.

Try using a big screwdriver between one of the bolts and the input shaft on the water pump. As long as the fan is not overly tight it should come off relatively easily. I've used this method on our 635 CSi race car without a problem. Basically, all the tool does is keeps the water pump from turning with the fan.

If the water pump is turning with the drive belts and your water temperature is high enough to trigger the fan to work but it is still free-wheeling, it could very well be the fan clutch. Keep in mind that the purpose of the clutch is to allow the fan to free-wheel until coolant is hot enough to require use of the fan to assist air flow through the radiator.

If you’re referring to the removal of the fan as shown in this M3, it would be the same. Facing the front of the car the nut gets turned to the right. It’s a left-handed thread, so it turns the opposite direction from most other things you work on. We hope that helps you. Good luck on your project, and thanks for watching!

How likely am I to get this fan out without the fan tool this weekend? I am going to take a rubber mallet to my 32mm wrench. I can't find a tool for this job (and I need it done ASAP! Princess Auto and NAPA don't have the fan tool for me and I don't have time to wait for eBay).

Would a non-m e46 with a SMG require this same process? I can't seem to find verification online. Thanks for the great video!

If the clutch is bad then the fan will spin freely without resistance. If your pump is bad then you will either have a leak, or no coolant flow, causing overheating. Usually the bearing goes bad and you can hear a rattle or you can move the water pump pulley by pressing on it towards and away from the engine.
