The radiator fan on my father's 95 850GLT is making squealing noises, and sounds like it's about to seize up any minute. Does anyone know if I can remove the fan and re-grease the bearings, or replace the bearings, or do I need to get a new fan??

Thanks!

Right. The motor is pretty much a sealed unit. You don't want to wait too long to replace it. Mine went up in alot of smoke without any fuses blowing. Sometimes they're on e-bay but you don't really know the condition. If you're going to keep the car a while and use the ac alot then a new one would be your best bet.

No they're not greasable. You can replace the whole unit in a few hours. The whole thing is about $190 : http://www.vlvworld.com/indexframe.html?850/Section_2_10.htm
