I have the famous squeak and sometimes cut out from the heater blower.

 

No big deal 15 min fix but the options out there for parts range from £50 to £150 for a Valeo which is the original in the car.

 

Is there really that big of a diffrence ??? What would you do???

 

Part Number 1K2820015G

 

Thanks in advance

Buy used cheap, buy aftermarket more, buy Valeo morer.

 

Personally I'd just put a new set of brushes in the motor.

 

A quick search reveals a few have had success giving the bush(s) a good squirt of WD-40 or similar and lived happily ever after.

Ok this would stop the motor when its cust out. But is this even possibly is the unit not sealed?

I thought about doing this but then thought all I would do is have a constanst smell of WD40 in the cab.

Plenty what makes you say that?

The bouquet dissipates in a few days.

Does anyone know what brushes fir the factory motor?

 

If nobody chimes in just measure the old ones, buy cheap online and cut to size.
