Hi guys,

I recently body lifted my 3, and decided to go rotate the fan-shroud instead of trimming to gain the fan clearance. I even used 2 bolts instead of 1, secured with nuts and washers.

half way through our trip, it broke off its mount and hit the fan, forcing it into my NEW radiator.
Forum member amrg towed me back to the closest highway 60km away (over sand dunes).

I removed the damaged shroud (images included), and I suggest all lifters to do the same.

Does any one disagree with this method?
