Greetings Volks:

My friendly, neighborhood VW dealer just quoted $330 or $745, 300W or 450W,
for a replacement cooling fan motor for my 86 Vanagon.  In either case, it
is just a bit pricey, eh?

Can anyone suggest a more reasonable alternative for fixing what sounds
like bad bearings in my present motor?

Thanks -- Frank
