Hi there on my z3 3.0 (m54) auxiliary fan in front of the aircon appears to be either seized or broken.

Is this fan a universal part across all m54 engines or specific to my z3?

Also anyone know any guides on replacing?

Its controlled by the radiator fan switch and also works with the AC. Possibly universal but not sure and usually don't fail or at least very often but Z3's are getting up there in years. I would find the wiring diagram and test it and the circuit that controls it first.

So the fan appears to be seized so thats to be replaced

Does anyone know if there are any aftermarket fans or even other m54 engine fans that will work here?
