I just bought a used 2021 GLE 53 AMG, and the fan noise when using the climate controls is unbelievable. When turning on the climate control under Setting 1, the fan noise is unbearable. AC is working and cooling the car fine, but the noise drowns out the cabin.
What's the point with Burmeister speakers when this noise destroys the sound quality in the cabin? Im living in the Northeast so we use the climate controls 8 months out of the year. I just came out of a BMW x5 40i, and the climate control fan noise under level 1, 2 and 3 was minimal and certainly not intrusive.

Have anyone else had any issues with climate fan noise? or have any ideas if anything can be done to lower the noise?

Never noticed the fan itself on our 63 but I hear the air velocity on the higher speeds but not the lower ones

Sounds like something is malfunctioning. Low fan speeds are close to silent.

Thanks, great to know.
Yeh, really strange to have a strong velocity sound at setting 1... I have to blast the music in order to drown it out in the cabin. I will have a Merceds technician take a look at it.

Thanks for the info. Yes, that is what I would have expected for this vehicle.
