Replacement of the Fan Bearing
Model: Volkswagen Passat
3BG, B5
- Years 1996-2005
If you hear a squeaking noise coming from the engine bay near the auxiliary belt, it is likely that a tensioner or one of the bearings driven by the auxiliary belt has failed: in this case, it is the fan bearing; to replace this bearing, which is fixed to the aluminium support plate located between the engine and the gearbox, you need to remove the alternator, the fan, and the fixing pins of the plate itself; additionally, to extract the plate, you must disconnect a hose, draining some of the coolant; once the plate is on the bench, you can proceed with the bearing replacement.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Light on the Opel Grandland X
While driving, if you notice the tyre pressure warning light coming on, first check the actual inflation pressure of the tyres and, if necessary, restore the pressures recommended by the manufacturer. After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off. by ScegliAuto More videos
