I have a 2005 Acura RL with 75k miles. I'm having a problem with the AC Condenser Fan/Motor. My mechanic said he's pretty sure it's the motor that runs the AC fan. I am posting on here because I know there are a lot of Acura experts on this forum. Please help me!!!
If I am at a red light, or I start braking, it seems like the fan makes a vibrating/rumbling noise. If I am driving on the highway with the AC on, I don't hear anything and it's silent. when I'm at a low speed, or at a stop, the fan try's to kick on and that's when all of the noise starts.
The dealer wants $300 for just the motor and I can't find any site or store that sells aftermarket.

Any info is much appreciated! Thanks!

 

There is a radiator cooling fan and an AC condenser fan behind the radiator. Each motor can be had for around $200 here: OEM Acura RL 2007 RADIATOR (DENSO) parts

If you buy from here, make sure to contact Tim. He is the internet parts salesman and a vendor on this site, oemacurapartstim. Name drop AZine, and he should be able to hook you up with a discount or free shipping. I can't imagine this is such a difficult project you couldn't do it, but I don't know your competency under the hood.
