Pop the wiring multiplug out of its holder.
Loosen the screw/bolts holding the cover on. There are 8 if I remember right?
Pull the cover out of the way.
Unclip the big black plastic channels from the lower parts covering the fan blades and remove them from the cavity.
There's now a metal strip holding the fan down - get a screwdriver under the end and prise the clip off.
Unplug the connector and presto!

Fitting is reverse of removal but the strap can be a pain to get on..

All correct, except you won't find the last four screws! Only four hold the bulkhead plate in place.
Pull the rubber seal for the bonnet at the back of the engine compartment off first.

Your better off putting some light machine oil on the bearings.. WD40 can stink a bit :D
