While I was driving to work today, I noticed my car was shaking more than normal. I parked and the entire car would rumble/shake at a steady speed regardless of engine rpm...so it couldn't be the engine causing it. I popped the hood and heard a rubbing/scraping sound, and it turns out the culprit was the radiator fan. You can see it wobbling a bit and rubbing on the shroud or something. Then it got really bad as I was recording this video.
It seems there is a lot of play between the fan and the fan motor. When I turn the fan by hand, it takes a bit of effort to turn...at least it seems like it should spin easier. Should I get a new fan? New fan motor? Both? Where's the best place to buy them? Thanks.
