Yea - defo change in airflow

But because the airflow wasn’t getting warm enough as it passed through the rad, even the new one wasn’t activating fully when it should.

If you can easily stop the fan with a rolled up newspaper once the car is hot then it’s prob not at its best - I could even spin mine backwards quite easily

It should also “roar” more when the car is hot
