Product Information

Full details

The Febi Bilstein Fan Blade with Viscous Clutch (35552) is an essential cooling system replacement designed for automotive technicians and vehicle owners looking to maintain optimal engine temperatures. Engineered for precision, this unit features an 8-wing blade design with a 680 mm diameter to ensure efficient airflow, providing a direct-fit solution for specific heavy-duty cooling requirements. While it offers excellent build quality, users must carefully verify vehicle fitment against OE number 1 412 398 to ensure the clutch mechanism and blade geometry are fully compatible with their engine configuration.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary function of the viscous clutch in this assembly?

The viscous clutch allows the fan to rotate at variable speeds depending on the engine's temperature, which saves fuel and reduces engine noise.

Does this part fit all vehicle makes and models?

No, it is specific to models requiring OE number 1 412 398. Always cross-reference your vehicle's specific requirements before purchase.

What is the diameter of the fan blades?

The fan blade assembly has an outer diameter of 680 mm.

How many wings are on this fan?

This model is designed with 8 wings to optimize airflow.

Can I replace just the fan blades without the clutch?

The 35552 is sold as a integrated unit; it is recommended to replace the entire assembly to ensure perfect balancing and optimal clutch performance.

Troubleshooting

Fan is spinning at high speeds even when the engine is cold.

The viscous clutch may be seized or locked; test the clutch for resistance when the engine is off and cold, and replace the unit if it does not turn freely.

Engine overheating during idle or low-speed driving.

Check if the viscous clutch is failing to engage. If the blades are stationary despite high engine temperatures, the clutch mechanism may have lost its fluid charge.

Loud vibration or clicking noise coming from the front of the engine.

Ensure the fan blades are not hitting the fan shroud. Check for loose mounting bolts and ensure the assembly is balanced correctly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Direct fit for specific OE requirements
  • High-efficiency 8-wing blade design
  • Reduces strain on engine components through proper thermal management
  • Reliable construction quality from an industry-recognized brand

Cons

  • Requires careful compatibility checking with specific OE numbers
  • Significant size (680 mm) requires ample clearance during installation
  • Heavy component weight demands secure mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting the installation, ensure the vehicle engine is completely cool. The primary compatibility requirement is matching the part to OE number 1 412 398. When installing, verify that the viscous clutch mount is clean of debris or old grease. Tighten mounting bolts to the vehicle manufacturer’s specific torque settings to prevent vibration. For care, visually inspect the blade wings for cracks or signs of fatigue during every routine oil change. Keep the area around the clutch free from heavy buildup of road grime or oil, which can impede the thermal sensor on the viscous coupling and lead to premature fan engagement or failure.
