Hi, i'm wanna buy a fan Replaceent and was wondering if this fan would work http://www.amazon.com/Cooling-Notebook-MacBook-Numbers-MG62090V1-Q030-S99/dp/B00 4W6BAJ8/ref=pd_bxgy_pc_img_b

Hi W,
It sure looks like it. Under the Amazon features it lists the late 2008 15" MBP, and the review states that it's the left side fan.
yea but then i saw this part (Please make sure the part number on the fan is the same as the one on your old fan before order.)
And it's not?
They're different brands, which could account for the different part numbers. What is the part number on yours?
what part is the part number? not the model right
Yes, the model.
the model is KSB0505HB

If you're not comfortable that the Sunon will fit/work, why not buy one of the others on eBay with the correct model number?
yea i did but i wanted a new one not used will see how this one works out(other has a noise coming from it that i use 3n1 oil on but that last 1-2 weeks befor i need to do again)
Look at iFixit.com. They have replacement fans (the correct ones) plus fully detailed instructions and toolsets to replace the fan. I also had/have a 4,1 2008 MBP who's one fan is failing. But I've gotten very good at disassebling the fan casing, removing the rotor, cleaning, oiling and reassembling it to get it to be whisper quiet. It's a great thing to have iStat Pro that tells me the RPM of each fan to make sure that it's running. But the next time it happens, I'm going to order a new replacement from iFixit. I think I've refurbished it about 3 times so far, that's probably enough.
yea same for me just did it for my third time today. Its really easy to open dont need a fully detailed instructions or toolset as I have done it 3 times now. I also use SMCfan control i like that more then istat.
Question Fan replacement(late 2008 MBP)
