Just barely outlasted the warranty

The original one on the car lasted 30 years, 150k miles. This one worked fine for 13 months, about 8000 miles. 1 year warranty so I'm out of luck. For the next one I'm going to spend 10 bucks more to get one from FCP Euro with a lifetime warranty!

Pros
  • Great product and price
Cons
  • Durability issues: Some users have noted that despite the supposed high-quality construction of the fan clutch unit, it tends to wear out or fail prematurely, which can be a costly and time-consuming problem to repair

Spend a few $$$ now save a bunch later.

Installed this on my 1987 325is at about 120k. The original unit looked to be running fine and had a substantial amount of tension, resulting in a decent amount of air movement. However the engine temperature always seemed to run a bit hotter that it should (needle would move to 3/4). After installing this unit the engine temp runs normal all time now. This assembly is designed to increase rpm to the fan by utilizing energy produced by the engine. This unit is filled with a thick viscous oil…

Pros
  • Perfect fit
Cons
  • Noisy operation: Many customers have reported that the Beck Arnley 130-0093 fan clutch unit can be quite loud when in operation, making it an annoying distraction while driving or when the engine is idling

perfect fit for my opinion

The price can't be beat in stores, maybe on ebay, but barely, and i hate pay pal. I had it installed in fifteen min and most of that was spent getting the old one loose. That way it spins itself tight. Remember righty-loosy at least on my bimmer. Fit the stock fan perfect too. It is a bit closer to the belts if you have after market stuff jammed around in there. But great brand at a great price. German born 1991 M318i.

Pros
  • Clutches
Cons
  • Compatibility concerns: A few customers have had issues with finding the correct size or type of fan clutch unit to fit their specific vehicle make and model, which can be frustrating and lead to expensive repairs or replacements
