I have searched and saw all kinds of problems with AC Fans, Fan Motors and Relays but unless I missed it, nothing seems to be what I am experiencing. Going through various tests, this is what I am experiencing. It is a 2008 Grand Touring Front Wheel Drive.
First, this only happens when making a left hand turn. None of the following things I list happen when I turn right under any of these circumstances.
1. If the AC is off, nothing happens.
2. If the AC is on and fan isn't blowing a slow left turn you can hear what sounds like a slight gurgling sound or water..
3. If the AC is on and you make a sharp left hand turn with a little speed, it sound like the AC fan is speeding up. The sound appears to be coming from the center dash vents and lower right floor but I was sitting in the passenger seat while my wife was showing me.
3. If the AC is on high/max and you make a sharp left turn with a little speed, you hear what sounds like the fan speeding up and making a shrieking noise.
This is consistent every time you do it. I thought is might be the serpentine belt when I heard a noise but it doesn't sound like a belt squeal and that doesn't explain the sound like the fan increasing.
So any idea? Want to be clear that is "sounds" like the fan blowing harder. I can't be sure that is physically happening.
Thanks for any help and hope it's something easy to address myself.
