Thank you for sharing your knowledge. The video was essential for me to be able to make the necessary repairs on my 2002 BMW 320i 2.2 24v. My name is RaGe and I live in Brazil, on the southern border with Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay

Do I have to pull out the fan to do the water pump ?

[@davebashford3753]

The fan clutch nut has left hand threads. Not a trivial detail.

[@mikechudzik1325]

Left out in the video on which direction it comes loose

[@donaldcoulter6017]

Yea, you can see which way it's spinning in the video. But thanks for confirming

[@christians6734]

Actually, this info is most relevant, compared to the content in this video. .

Short & to the point…get the 32 mm long clutch nut wrench & the fan pulley bolt offset wrench. I tried to do it without them - it’s a nightmare.

[@jorritlandman556]

Just put a 32 on it and give it a couple smacks with a hammer

thank you bro, i need to replace my serpentine belt

I clicked on this video because it was titled "How to remove fan AND SHROUD" and I watched you remove the fan, but not the shroud...and your reasoning is because "it's a pain"...?

[@johnautry6851]

Yeah, huge help. A how to vid that doesn't show you how, because it's too hard.

[@donaldcoulter6017]

It's kind of obvious because Once you remove the fan it comes out with the shroud
