Default Motor driven fan noise
My fan clutch went out and I replaced it with an autozone one. I hear the fan every time I go over 2000 RPM I figured a bad part so I change it for another same thing, I don't remember hearing the old one, question, if I put a genuine Lexus clutch will it fix this problem?

Is there any chance your fan bracket is making the noise?

I had to replace the fan bracket on my 93, it was making a very terrible noise, you could actually see metal shavings on the serpentine belt from it.
