Loud Engine Noise, maybe from Fan ?
I was wondering what this could be ?
I was driveing down 101 about 80-85 mph for a good 20 min. then when i turned off the freeway the noise started. When ever i rev past 2k sounds like the Fast is spinning super fast, or something is rubbing. All fluids are fine and no Warning lights are on. I use the car as a daily drive also. when i poped the Hood and and reved it and when i let the throttle go, A lot of Hot air Blew straight into my Face YEAOUCH damn HOT rx's

as your car runs hotter it tightens up the cluch in the fan and than creates more resistance therefore making the fan spin faster. the noise you hear is most likely the cluch fan enguaging. if you are running hotter than that is is forsure.

Actually there was Metal Shards where the berings were for the Fan, i took those out, fixing everything nice. Then puting it back toget i broke a Blot off of the Themostat housing, Bent the Hole Fan and bent the Top nossel of the Raditor. So I hacve a lot more work to Do now. Trying not to cry =o(
