  • Cabin Fan - Squeaking/Squealing Noise

    Hi all,

    My 2010 GX is emitting a quiet, but annoying rhythmic squealing noise when turned on. It speeds up when ready the fan speed and slows to a stop when I turn it off, so I am suspecting some component of the fan setup itself. My initial thought would have been a leaf, but the noise is over 2 years old and that likely would have stopped/broken down by now.

    Has anyone experienced this noise or something similar? How would I access the fan to check/tighten it? Any other thoughts?

    Thanks!

    Funny, my 2010GX had the same issue. Like you I thought it was a leaf or something caught in the blades and it was quite annoying.
    I pulled the fan assembly out (3 screws from memory) and cleaned it but that made no real difference.
    Even considered spending 200 bucks on a new fan assembly but I eventually traded the car in on a 2014 GXL, which incidentally still has the same noise on low speed, although not as loud as on the last car.

      I also have the same issue with my 2011 TX.L.

      Its annoying while driving and replacement is expensive (Eqv. around 270AUD)

        I’ve just gotten used to mine (almost 8 yrs old now). Or maybe the other creaks and rattles have just gotten louder ;-)

          My GX does the same. First there was a soft clicking noise kind of like when you put a playing card in your bicycle spokes which did end up being a leaf, but just recently started making the squealing noise. Haven't got round to pulling it apart to find a solution but will post a response if I do.
