| think thats pretty normal dude if i remember right, nothing to worry about as long as the fans cutting in ok. I think you can cure the noise either by taking out the fan/blower and re-greasing the bearings or just replace it, i dont think they are very expensive - it used to do that for me, i found that if you switch the blower off and back on it usually shuts it up.

Martin yeah i thought that was the case, i never noticed it before, it's probably becuase i was bored in traffic and i started looking at it! haha! cheers for the advice dude! might tackle the blower this weekend! | |

| My golf does it, especially in summer traffic. I always get a bit worried and insist on having heated blowers on pointing out of the window - doesn't half piss anyone else off who's in the car! Always cringing if I see a thread started by you, I keep thinking something else has happened  | |
