I have for sale a used cooling fan from a 2009 Jetta Sportwagen TDI. It is the original part shipped with the car. The fan operates, but stops intermittently for unknown reasons. I replaced it with a new one, and the new one operates normally. A technician from Ross-Tech suggested that it may be a problem with the electronics in the fan motor that occurs only when the fan gets hot from the engine. I can't verify this is what's happening. I opened the fan motor and everything looked to be in really good shape, and the brushes have plenty of life left (it was taken apart before I had the replacement, it was reinstalled, and the fan worked the same as before disassembly). Maybe can be used for parts, don't know if it can be fixed.
