Cooling Fans Front Bumper/Wheel Arch Replacement

[RobbyJ]

Hi All,

My 2020 Taycan 4S is suffering from the seized cooling fans on both sides. The ones in front of the front wheels.

I've read online that it's quite the process to replace them so I'm not going to try it myself. I've sourced the fans but my question is, has anyone had this job done at an independent garage anywhere in the South of England? I don't want to take it to someone who's doing this for the first time and Porsche quoted £4800 including the fans which is a bit silly.

I'm presuming that this is similar to a air filter change on a Panamera.
Yes absolute faff but not undoable for a competent spanners guy.
Obviously doesn't count for the fact that "computer says no" after all done and dusted just because the software coding is different.

If I had a garage I could get the car into so I could do it over a couple of days I would, but it's a big job, wheels off, arch liners out, frunk panels off, bumper off, headlights out, fan assemblies out etc.
