The fan RPMs jump up and you get that sound, in the winter here it happens once in a while, in the summer it's constant.

This happens on my 09 clk550 when the AC is on MAX. I guess it's normal from what everyone is saying.

normal....but if it happens A LOT, all the time...then it might be your coolant temperature sensor...mine went bad, and caused the fan to come on the whole time the car was on...even tho it wasn't over heating.

but if its just really hot out and you have your AC blasting its normal.

CLK 550
what?

I never hear that thing, maybe mine went down south? Really I never trapped mine actually working, or at least hearing it working...
