Can the engine cooling fan viscous clutch unit be changed without having to remove radiator hoses, cooling shrouds etc ?
Please detail procedure if possible !

you dont need to remove the radiator hoses, you may be able to keep the shrouding on also.. but its much easier to remove it. remove the 4/5 screws that hold the shrouding on.. bend and twist it so it comes out (try not to break it), but its quite flexible..
then just use.. 10mm? cant remember, ring spanner to undo the 4 little nuts that hold the fan unit on..
