Tried myself several times. Looked the same. But when refilled, ran the car much cooler.
The only way to tell is if you slow down and the temp goes up.
From the symptoms you described, I can just about guarantee that's your car's only issue.
Not trying to be an ass, but after dealing with 5 of them, I've got that nailed.

I tried to search some sort of a manual how to make this procedure but I didnt find any. I found only one explanation about a similar fan in a different car. can you explain me how it is done? what kind of silicon oil should I use? if you have pictures, it will be great!
Thanks a lot.
By the way, yesterday I was stuck in traffic about 30 minutes without moving in 30C and although the heat indicator was slightly above the last white line, the overheating warning light turned on

it was really scary. I must fix this issue!
