I don't think new discs will sort out a sticking caliper...

I'd start with a full 4 wheel laser alignment and wheel balance and take it from there...

thought i would update this, new discs and pads fitted to the rear, we managed to find the cause of the irritating wobble when driving, it was 4 x 5mm cast spacers one on each wheel......had the mot done straight through and no advisories |

If you're talking about the fan 'inside' the engine bay, then this is a viscous fan, it spins all the time. However with the engine off and a cold engine you should be able to turn the fan freely by hand. When the viscous clutch in the hub gets hot it locks up and drives the fan harder.
