Moderate

My Problem

The right fan was making a horrible sound. I am almost 70 and walk poorly, to take my MBP and Mac Mini to the Apple Store for repairs would be a major effort. I found Ifixit and ordered my parts. Wow from your shipping location in California to Manitoba, Canada took four days and both systems are repaired and working fine. I am impressed.

My Fix

The guides were very clear and accurate the taking apart was a breeze, replacement parts were exact and I saved a lot of energy at my age by being able to order on line with speedy service.

My Advice

I am just amazed to be able to locate the tutorials to show me what to do to repair buth of my computers, ability to order the parts and then be able to have success in repairing them myself. Thank you IFixit. I shall spread the word.
