Radiator Fan Noise?

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Justin G. Wood, Feb 9, 2004.

  1. Sounds like an extra vibration almost when the car is in the neighborhood of
    about 2500-3000 RPMs, believe it's coming from the radiator fan. Checking
    the fan I find no lose parts, the car isn't overheating, just an annoying
    sound. Anyone have any ideas?

    thanks very much,
    Justin

    Take the fan off and test drive without it. The car won't overheat
    without the fan unless you get stuck in traffic.

    Maybe that's how fast the electric fan turns and it has a slight imbalance
    in the fan blades. When the engine's rpm's are in phase with the electric
    fan, it starts shaking?

    Just a guess.
