Ok, so almost every time I accelerate I hear a buzzing noise from the front end and seems to be in the middle. I've tried to find some threads on this, but they don't ave any replies. :exporange

Fan shroud flexing a bit and hitting the fan blades?

Fan Blades cracked and flexing into the Shroud?
 






i had the same issue a while back... it was my fan rubbing on the shroud i eliminated the lower half of the shroud and buzzing gone
 






My fan is cracked between some of the blades. Should I replace it, or will it not do any damage, if I leave it?
 






if its cracked...depending on the severity deepness and location of the crack, I'd still probably replace it. I did run my first fan with a few minor cracks in them but as they got worse it ended up with my fan ALMOST flying apart in pieces. I would try to exactly pinpoint if this is your problem with the *buzzing* i could visibly see mine and the scoring the fan left on the shroud. I was lucky enough it was just my shroud was bent/warped and causing it.
 






Alright, do you know the specifics on the fans? I'm going to go out and take a look around town and see who can give me the best price, today and tomorrow :)
