hi, my 320i makes a noise which seems to come from somewhere around the fan, i can also hear it from inside the car when i'm driving it, it sounds like a fan from inside the car.
from the outside of the car, i go closer to the front of the car, and i can hear the coming from the fan ( not a loud noise ).
also, when i switch off the engine, the fan makes a noise before it stops,
any ideas please?
thanks

bearing on viscous coupling-spin it by hand ,should be smooth.
