Re: Odd whirring noise, occurred overnight, any clues?

The sound will go away when the vehicle has warmed up, usually a ride of 10 minutes and the sound has dissipated.
Any ideas/insights into what it might be?
I have replaced the serpentine belt before and I have had the timing belt done. The vehicle currently has 122,000 miles on it.
Thanks,

Take a listen down by the heater fan motor below the glove compartment when it's cold. Not unusual for the motor to make some noise when cold with dry bearings.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to siphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????
If your engine doesn't consume ANY oil it will seize???
Some people should not be allowed access to tools without books!!!
