loud fan sound comes just after ignition on
Excuse me but i have c215 cl600 just for 3 weeks
but i wonder
what gives such audible sound after ignition on
its like some kind of ventilator
It comes from passenger side, near (under) headlamp
is it normal?
I think i hear it everytime, even engine is running

I thought so. Thanks for answer
The only problem is that this pump wont stop after minute or two
sometimes it sounds like hairdryer even when engine is hot.
I hear it almost everytime.
I know about well known issue with relay and air pump
so i bought cheap china replacement for less than $200
and i'm waiting for it
but please tell me, Does it start after ignition on, even when engine is hot?

my pump starts every time after ignition on, and gives engine check very often
so it needs to be replaced for sure

Anyway back to the main topic of this thread , the fan coming on high is a classic symptom of a bad SAM or ecu due to water damage so you must fix the water damaged parts before replacing the SAM or ecu unless you want to immediately fry the new one you put in.

I removed air pump realay. Nothing changed. Then i plug new original relay. Still hear this fan sound. Air pump dont vibrate when i'm touching it. Sound comes not from this pump but from under the headlamp all the time after ignition on. Computer gives no errors.

My mechanic can't help also,
he don't know what cause this hum after ignition on
but definitely this is not an air pump
he claims that this is abc cooling system and something is wrong with that, but he don't know what (no errors)
but after some research i don't see any special ABC fan in my car
I know that common issue with abc is pulsation dampener failure
which gives hum sound from passenger side, but the main question is
Is it possible that abc pulsation dampener gives fan type sound even when engine is off?
when i just turn ignition on?
(i don't have any visible abc issues)
update: after more research i probably found the reason
my auto is equipped with webasto heater
and it has own fan which i hear
its located under the right lamp, near bumber
bingo
but i must find out why its running even when engine is hot
and how can i turn it off
maybe one of temperature sensors is faulty

That noise is a fan. It's not an air pump or webasto heater . If you say it's not the main fan then it's the aux fan, and as I said several posts up, when a fan comes on high speed and will not shut off it is usually due to damaged ecu

small update
on cl600 m137 there is no additional fan ecu!
i bought this part, but my mechanic told me that only amg cl55 or cl500 have additional ecu module
I had faulty temperature switch, very cheap
relay was good, fan was good
