fan will come out (It is from the back or coming out from the front bumper??
Otherwise I have similar symptom as described above like Not having enough A/C
when stopping/or car blowing hot air inside. And I went and bought a new fan on ebay.
I set the new aux fan on top of the engine, unplugged the old one while still on the car, plugging the new one in the same plug, now I went to start the car and put the A/C on
After 3second, Boommmmmmm the new Auxiliary fan kicks in while sitting on top of the engine cover. So, this was a good sign showing me that the old culprit wasn't working.
and I plugged the old one back, but the culprit wasn't spinning at all.
Now I just wanted to ensure where the aux fan comes out. front? or back?

If the fan is in front of the bumper it comes out from the front. But you must also remove the actual metal bumper that the bumper cover covers. Why? Because there are two plastic shrouds that are located in front of the fan and the only way to remove them is with the actual metal bumper off. The shrouds are held in place with 2 plastic rivets on each shroud.
