• Year: 2020
• A-number: A2251
• Model Identifier: MacBookPro16,2

A-number alone can span more than one configuration. We verify the full model identity and fitted component before ordering or fitting.

Common symptoms

• The fan is noisy, rattling or not spinning correctly
• The device overheats or slows down under load
• Unexpected shutdowns occur when the device is warm
• Airflow is restricted by dust or dried thermal material

Similar symptoms can have more than one cause. We test first and obtain approval before any different or additional paid repair.

What is included

• Cooling-system inspection and diagnostics
• Fan replacement or internal cleaning/thermal work exactly as described in the title
• Parts, labour and fitting where a replacement is listed
• Temperature, fan-speed and load testing

Installed repair only: Minko’s Macs does not sell this repair part separately. We confirm compatibility and fit it as part of the service.

How the service works

1. Confirm the model and reproduce the thermal symptom
2. Check temperatures, airflow and fan behaviour
3. Power down, isolate power and access the cooling system
4. Carry out the listed cleaning, thermal service or fan replacement
5. Reassemble and test temperatures and stability under load

Turnaround: Normal turnaround is 5–7 working days after check-in. Parts availability, additional faults or customer approval can extend this; we will contact you before carrying out extra paid work.

One-year warranty

The fitted replacement part or completed component repair, together with its related workmanship, carries a one-year warranty. Accidental or impact damage, consumable wear and unrelated faults are excluded. If inspection finds liquid damage, repair work to an existing liquid-affected component has no warranty because corrosion can continue; any new replacement part we fit still carries its one-year warranty. Statutory rights remain unaffected.

Frequently asked questions

Does a loud fan always need replacing?
No. Dust, software load, sensors or dried thermal material can cause high fan speed. We diagnose first.

Can fanless models receive this repair?
No. A fan replacement is only valid for hardware that contains a serviceable fan.

Will my data be erased?
Cooling work does not ordinarily erase data, but maintain a current backup.
