Viscous Fan Coupling - temperature-sensitive drive coupling between the water pump drive and the engine cooling fan.

It modulates fan speed with under-bonnet temperature, engaging to drive the fan when cooling airflow demand is high and freewheeling when the load is low, which reduces parasitic drag, fuel consumption and fan noise. Fitted to 2.5 turbo diesel, 200 TDi and 300 TDi engines.
Vehicle Model Land Rover Defender up to 2016

Frequently asked questions

What does the ETC7238G viscous fan coupling do?
The ETC7238G is a temperature-sensitive coupling between the water pump drive and the engine cooling fan. It speeds the fan up when under-bonnet temperature is high and lets it freewheel when demand is low, cutting drag, fuel use and noise. Fitted to 2.5 turbo diesel, 200 TDi and 300 TDi engines.
What are the signs the viscous fan coupling is failing?
A failing ETC7238G viscous coupling usually shows as engine overheating in traffic, a constantly roaring fan, or poor heater performance. When the coupling seizes or loses its silicone fluid, fan speed no longer matches cooling demand. It's a common wear item on these TDi engines.
Which models does the ETC7238G fit?
The ETC7238G fits the Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic (1992-1994) with the 2.5 turbo diesel and 200 TDi engines. It's a Borg Warner coupling. Confirm your engine and fan setup, as air-conditioned and non-air-con cars can differ.
