From reading this thread i'm pretty sure i've found the source of my loud fan in the mornings.
I was wondering has anyone else tried to make their own PWM to fit? Whilst the £85 is a huge saving over replacing the fan units, if you've got 'The Knack' you should be able to make one cheap.
I though it was pretty expensive for what it is but I think the maker knows this, good piece of kit though and it works so take the plunge - easier.
Thanks OFI, that sums it up exactly. It's the hours that my hubby spends in the garage at weekends that leads to the price. Not forgetting VAT of course.The guy who makes them on the site has kindly published the circuit diagram and instructions but is offering the service of making them for people at a nice profit
I work in an electronics lab so it would seem a little silly to pay someone to build something I could do in a quiet morning
If you can't build one yourself then £85 sounds like an ideal solution to save over £200 replacing the fans!
Do you do one for the 4motion Golf, as I know its slightly different?

Hi DavidHi, just placed an order for one of these kits from NIME as my fans keep coming on randomly as mentioned previous. Had a look under the bonnet to see whether the low speed fan works after reading this thread and surprise surprise it doesn't! The guide looks ok though so fingers crossed I can fit it and not destroy my new car!
