I have a short commute, and no traffic jams to speak of; but my 240D couldn't even keep the thermostat open at speed on the Ohio Tpk in january ... on my way back from PA, where I bought it.

Do you notice any difference without the fan?
I might consider changing my '84 300TD's clutch-fan for a 240D fan, but the TD also has a working AC, so as long as it's not broke, I'm not 'fixing' it.

Happy Motoring, Mark
