yes.

Its not something I would do on a stock 240d though. They run so cool that the fan probably seldom runs anyway. If you are going very fast the forward movement of the car will probably to all the cooling needed.

If you do a lot of town driving it might be worthwhile, but otherwise I probably wouldnt do it unless the rad needed changing anyway.
