I can hear the passenger side fan while in the drivers seat. I have an '08 987. I hear no noise from the same location on the drivers side when standing outside of the car. Am I understanding correctly that both fans should be on of off at the same time, rather than one turning on and the other side remaining off? I may call my dealer to see what hte options are.

Thanks again!
Anytime one fan is running, both should be. If not, you either have a bad fan motor, or more likely, have blown the in-line ballast resistor. The fix for the resistor is to remove bumper/fender lining and cut the old one out of the electrical harness and splice the new one in. Very easy job except for the 45 min. spent removing/replacing the bumper and fender liner.

Cheers!
