vibration

[mick19691]

i noticed a couple of days ago that my machine seemed to be vibrating more than usual only when ticking over then today as i was topping up the screen wash i noticed that one of the fins on the fan had snapped off any ideas if this would cause the vibration
thanks

It definitely could. I wouldnt expect a huge difference but anything that rotates and is unbalanced will definitely cause a slight difference in vibration levels, ( Big difference if it was a huge fan)

Hello,

Are you sure its snapped - they are not evenly spaced to make sure there's less harmonic vibration

If it has there's one half way down this page

pricey though!

I have a good used one, and it won't be as expensive as that!

Let me know.
