Thought I would show the difference between a new VDO condenser fan and the old Bosch fan. I replaced the original Bosch thinking it was bad since the fuse for the aux fan was missing in the fuse box. However I will keep it to see if I can repair it at a later time because it has a nice sturdy metal frame vs plastic on the VDO fan. However, I think the VDO blade design is better (more blades, more curvature) and may do a better job moving air through the condenser. The fan I purchased was VDO FA70001 from autozone for 110$ including shipping. VDO fan pictured in the left, Bosch in the right

For what year? I am pretty sure my 1992 factory fan was much more, of not the same, as the VDO unit I replaced it with. Just curious if there was a revision at some point or maybe mine was already replaced once before.
