I was driving about 60 km/hr (@35mph) for about 5 minutes then stopped at lights for about 45 seconds. Heard a loud rattle with vibration, then it sounded like a fan kicked in. I then drove at (100km/h (60mph) for about 15 minutes. Stopped at lights for about 30 seconds and the same thing happened. Possible idling issue?!?!? Anybody else experience this? I'm certani it's coming from the front end.

Just had it in for a traction/ABS/Stability light issue...AGAIN. The last time they replaced the instrument cluster. Replaced an intermediate shaft (warranty) and now this?!?!?!?

Just did a 4 hour drive in it yesterday and was very comfortable, fuel consumption was exellent, but it's problems are mounting.

Noticed it only does it in temps over 15c and only happens when the climate control system is on. It's like afan revving up before it goes into idle.
