Driving without Fan Clutch (waiting for parts to arrive)

[cn90]

So, my 2005 X5 M54 with 125K miles...
My factory Behr Fan Clutch decided to make noise.
I can see the fan blades wobbling during engine running.
With engine off, I rock the fan blade at 3 and 9 o'clock position, it moves like this (youtube video is from an M5, not my car, just to show the wobbling):

From years on forum, I know some people do fine (different BMW models) without fan clutch. Some installed an electric fan and some simply removed the fan clutch. We all know that some fan movement is "probably" important when it is hot summer and car is < 10 mph speed.
At highway speed, there is no need for the Fan Clutch at all.

- So, I am now running without Fan Clutch, I just avoid prolonged stop.
The Aux Fan (in front of Ac condenser) works fine and only on demand.

- Ordered a new Sachs for $87 (yes do NOT use Behr as Behr quality is not the same as 10 years ago) Fan Clutch, it should arrive soon.


So:

1. Who in this forum runs without Fan Clutch?

2. Any issues?
