For about the last year, the left fan in my Macbook Pro was rattling and would freak out and make even more noise if you held the computer at a certain angle (it was very, very annoying).

Getting the old fan out was a breeze with the T6 Torx screwdriver, and getting the new fan in place and hooked up was easy as pie. It took me about ten minutes all told, and when I booted the system back up after the repair, no more noise!

Be careful with the power connectors on the fans, they are a little fragile.
