Hi all.

When I start my R50 Cooper with the fan heater on I can hear it whining for a couple of seconds. Sounds like it needs some WD40 or something?

Also happens if I turn the fan heater on or off. Or when the car ignition is turned off. Bit annoying but nothing serious. Just wondered if it's something I can look at myself?

Cheers,
Alex.

Not sure how you get to it! Could be the fan bearing, I had similar on my central heating boiler with the extractor fan and the gas man used WD40, still needed a new one in the end to be on the safe side...
