[QUOTE="EggrollShop, post: 1409578, member: 64332"] As I suggested in someone else's thread about fan cleaning. Use the ifixit guides and you'll be golden. Also repaste the diodes on the logicboard. Apple unfortunately did a lousy job doing it the first time. I just recently repasted my Macbook Pro and saw temperature drops of up to 20C on idle and during heavy to moderate use and my fans no never go to max RPM. [/QUOTE]
