MacBook Pro 16-inch Intel (2019) Overheating & Fan Repair

Apple MacBook Pro

Mac Repair London carries out overheating and fan repair on the MacBook Pro 16-inch (2019, Intel) from our Central London workshop, for home users and businesses.

The 16-inch runs hot under load and gets worse as dust builds up in the fans and heatsink, and as the thermal paste dries out. Our full disassembly and cleaning service removes the dust, replaces the paste and checks the fans. It’s a common cause of throttling, loud fans and random shutdowns.

About this model: The 2019 16-inch MacBook Pro (A2141) fixed the keyboard problem by bringing back scissor switches, and added a better thermal design and a 100Wh battery. It’s still an Intel machine with Radeon Pro 5000-series graphics, so heat is its main enemy.

Signs it needs overheating and fan repair

  • Fans constantly loud
  • Performance drops under load
  • Hot keyboard area
  • Random shutdowns

How we do it

Our full disassembly and cleaning service (from £95 + VAT) removes dust from the fans and heatsink fins, replaces dried thermal paste and checks the fans run at the correct speeds.

We then run a sustained load test to check temperatures and performance stay stable. If a fan or temperature sensor has failed, we replace it.
