its not the radiator fan cutting in . the noise happens . if its hot or cold ... if car is started from cold the noise can start after a min or two of driving or ten mins . its a strange one . 

Yeah, the fan will still run even when the engine is cold, if climate is switched on.

Sure it's not the air con compressor kicking in/out ?

Sounds like a bit of a clunking noise :undecided:

what cass said.   :smiley:       sounds like the air conditioning fan. i have the same question cus it used to fire up straight from cold. turn off aircon completely and it doesnt do it.
