I believe you are correct so I'd be hesitant too

Well good news on this one, folks - it turned out to be a loom issue. Popped the car into Walkers Autotech middle of last week and had the car home on Monday (due to my diary). They also painted the calipers and the thing looks superb! Very happy once again. Back goes the £550 fan to Harry Fairbairn, although once again, very quick delivery from those guys.

Cost me £5 for the plug and an hour of an auto electricians time. I'm Pretty sure they are all 600W fans on the big engine e46s. Has to be off a Ci though.
The fan I installed does the job very very well even when I give it some stick. Will be ripping the complete cooling system out come autumn and installing a huge rad and uprated fans.
If anyone needs a good auto spark in the uk, I can recommend a friend who is ex cosworth and ralliart. He is also mobile if needed.
