Question Replacing the engine compartment fan?

I'm replacing the fan (DIY) tomorrow and wondering what this little venture is going to require.

Does anybody know if you have to replace the whole thing or is it possible to just replace the fan motor? What about cost?

I am not sure what the answer to your question is, but if you have to buy parts, call sunset porsche up in Oregon. They sell at about half of what your local dealer's parts counter will charge.

Thanks for the tip Randall.

I was looking up some prices and the fan lists at $289. I'll call them and see if they sell just the motor. Everything else should be fine.
