Hey guys, so ive been having an issue with my d5 and can't seem to figure out what it is. So i purchased my '19 discovery back in november 2020. After a couple months, maybe around february, i noticed that when taking of lets say after a red light. or when starting to roll from a full stop i would get a loud fan noise from the cooling fan. Now, it only happens while on first gear, and usually when temperature is over 95F, but also here in florida there are days where its about a 100F and i dont get the loud noise, but also days when car is in the 80's and loud fan comes on again, so its not a constant issue but comes and goes. Now, ive taken the car to the dealer about 5 times already, and they reset the module control, the even changed the fan motor, but im still getting the issue. Im honestly tired at this point of taking the car to the dealer and staying without a car for days most of the time for the lack of loaners that i've even considered parting ways with my D5, i really enjoy the car and the drive but ive never had a vehicle given me so many issues, im not sure if its bad luck but never had issues like these on my 2 previous LR/RR. I had a velar r dynamic prior to this and the only relatable issue i had was that the fan would stay on a little longer than supposed to after turning off the vehicle, but dealer took care of it when i took the vehicle in for service, they told me they had replaced the water pump and never had the issue again. I've mentioned this to the dealer in case it might have something to do here. I remember some report from one of the times i took it mentioned some irregularities with voltage? or something of that sort. So im trying to figure this out and see if by any chance any of you guys have gone through something similar that might help me point the issue here.

Any help is appreciated! thanks in advance.

 

Down in South Florida, 2020 D5 with the Si6 engine. I notice it on random take-offs as well, I believe it just has to do with the engine load/how much throttle you are applying.

Do you have the 4-Zone AC? (with auxiliary cooling fan up front). I've wondered if the noise is actually coming from that fan.

 

Hi

my car has started have the same symptoms. Today was quite loud since we are well above 37c im Tokyo. After a while the sound is less audible but otherwise when ever the AC is on it will start making this weird whining noise.

has anyone have any updates on this?!
