				Hey guys, not too sure if this is where i should be posting but, this is the first winter i'll be driving my car since i swapped the 3rd gen 3sgte and out of nowhere i hear a loud humming noise that gets loud and quiet and so on and i have no idea what it is, i try to take a listen as to where its coming from but i really can't tell, can anyone help? or has this happened to anyone else? kinda sounds like somethings struggling to move or turn

				but if u think that the fans are just frozen, then after u drive for a while the engine temp should melt the ice and make it normal,  but again ive never lived in a place where it dropes below freezing point
