Product Description

This Radiator Cooling Fan 3-Pin is designed to help regulate engine temperature by efficiently drawing air through the radiator, ensuring your Volkswagen operates within optimal thermal conditions. Featuring an 8-blade axial fan and a robust motor housing with a 3-pin electrical connector, this cooling fan motor is essential for maintaining reliable engine cooling, especially in South African traffic and hot climates.

This part is compatible with select Volkswagen models. It is especially suited for vehicles that require a 3-pin cooling fan motor with a 300mm fan diameter and 12V electrical system. Always confirm your Volkswagen’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
