2011 3.0v6 supercharged RADIATOR FAN QUESTION
Hi guys, i am wondering about the radiator fan, for my 2011 Q7. I need to replace it after the accident , but the price is ridiculous around 1k with everything. I found on web, and ebay like universal fans with shroud and it costs like twice cheaper.
Flex-a-lite 295 27 in. Electric Fan
i check fitment on ebay, and its showing that it will fit. Any ideas about it? It will fit for sure? maybe somebody using this universal fan??
Help me out

Marry Xmas and welcome.
Sorry to say it will not work. You will have to replace it with a OEM one cause each fan has a built in control module for the ECM to read each fan for turn on. Example fan 1 is Coolant Fan (V7) with Coolant Fan Control Module (J293).
and fan 2 is Coolant Fan 2 (V177) with Coolant Fan Control Module 2 (J671).
When you scan with your VCDS system it is looking for these to control modules. What I saw in the picture it is but into one control module, which you will get a check engine light on not read the correct volts for each fan.
Now don't forget there is auto wrecker places that sell with half the cost also, just need what year to the wrecker place.
Audi does not like after market parts, there are some but this is not one of them.

I like to go to audi wholesale parts on line. You can save up to 30% off the OEM price and it is from a OEM dealer.
Now I think your part #s is off little. This is why you cannot find anything.
If you have gas need to know the speed of the fan, 333 horsepower or not 333? Plus if you have a tow package or not.
Plus if you have a diesel need to know if you have a tow package or not.
If you do not know what I do is stop by a Audi dealership with my VIN and they will give you the correct part #s. Then I will order on line.
Hope this works?
