6. Ssangyong Original Fan Blade
7. Showing the nut that is tightly tighten and require a special tool for opening.
BeforeMy original fan is functioning normally but slight tight when on idle. On acceleration from idle, the roar sound is obvious and could be heard from cabin. Did feel a bit heavy at initial acceleration before turbo kick in.
AfterTested the fan is on free running that could be stopped by hand (not mine, the shop boss hand of course). On acceleration, instant difference could be immediately felt. The acceleration is so much quiet, surprisingly much lighter and improved acceleration power. I believe this will surely helps to improve on fuel consumption too.
ConclusionThe drive is now much more enjoyable and relaxing, even after all the servicing and improvement that was done. This is surely a worthy improvement that cost less than RM250. We should include this as part of the improvement items just like changing Vacuum Hose, Cleaning Exhaust Catalyst, Servicing Vacuum Modulator & EGR Valves.
Well done Bro Rex4585 for sharing such a valuable improvement and putting the effort to prove it really works. He really deserve a warm big clap from everyone here.
Will monitor further and report back my findings, especially during jammed traffic. Stay tuned.
