Good day 

i have an e46 328i auto 
on monday while driving home heard a loud noise and then power steering cut and battery light came on
luckily was 2 minutes away from home 

when i checked the AC belt(smaller one) had snapped and my fan had broken every fin was broken off

the serpentine belt doesnt seem to be snapped or anything its just off the pulleys 

would i have to replace the entire fan or is it possible to just replace the part that has the fins 

the mechanism seems to be fine

also any referrals as to where i can sort it out would be appreciated 

i stay around fourways

thank you

Please make sure your dampener pulley on the crank is still good as when they start to go the belt/s get trown. Yours broke, i know, but just check the dampener pulley as well. My old 2l diesel X3 threw the a/c belt when the pulley started breaking up.
