Annoying AC fan noise...
When my fans are blowing at any speed, it makes this intolerable and embarrassing whirring noise. Any idea what this is, and how to fix it? Can I fix it myself?

However, it's recently gotten worse and is very audible in both the 1 and 2 settings.
Solutions, please, I'll be very grateful.

Mine is this - a quiet but audible squeak on level 1. Can't hear it over music or anything, but if I want to drive in silence (or listen to the symphony under the hood), then I have to kill the fan or go insane. Level 2 and up is nothing but the regular fan noise.

its the blower motor, you can pull it out and replace it, the dealership did mine, although they replaced it and said that when they turned it on the pulley made the shroud go square like so they replaced that too. They had my car for 4 days!!!

Our 2007 does this too. it started on setting 1, and then progressed to setting 2. Now it's starting to do it on setting 3.
It's going to go in soon and I want to see what the dealer has to say.
