Description
Viscous coupling radiator fan – Mercedes R107 W124 W126 W140 W201 W202 – M103 M104 engine
Viscous coupling for the mechanically driven radiator fan of various Mercedes models with, among others, M103 and M104 engines.
The viscous coupling regulates the drive of the radiator fan depending on the cooling demand. As the temperature increases, the fan is driven more strongly, moving more air through the radiator. A properly functioning viscous coupling is particularly important when low driving speeds, idling and warm weather.
Suitable for Mercedes models

Additional information
- Regulates the drive of the mechanical radiator fan depending on the cooling demand.
- Ensures that the fan is driven more strongly as the temperature increases.
- A defective viscous coupling can lead to insufficient cooling, especially at low driving speeds, idling, and in warm weather.
- When replacing, also check the radiator fan, mounting, and other parts of the cooling system.
Special tools for disassembly
For disassembling and assembling the viscous coupling, you need special tools necessary. With the right tools, the viscous coupling can be removed without unnecessary damage to the fan, pulley, or surrounding parts.
You can also find the suitable tools for this in our webshop.
Always check before purchase and installation whether the part is suitable and equivalent based on photos, description, and specifications; installed or used parts cannot be returned.
