LOAD AC FAN SOUND

It's your ac colling backup fan, and I think it's normal, mine sound like a jet engine. But only when I'm at idle, when I drive it turns off.

There's no back up fan in our cars. Just a single large fan and fan speed is base on cooling temp. The sound it normal if the AC is on or on hot day.

Yes, I took my car to service at a dealership, and I told him I had this problem, and he said it's normal. He said something like circulating the air and the a/c would get cool quickly... so don't worry, but I admit that people look at you everywhere you drive by because we are too LOUD.... =)
