Swooshing Noise When Throttling?
Recently purchased a 96 SC400 with 72k on it.
After picking it up from the dealer, I thought the brakes needed to be replaced because I heard a scraping/swooshing noise. Took it to a shop, it needed brakes so I had them replaced. After driving home from the shop I realized that it wasn't the brakes (although they were due for replacement). Whenever you give the car gas, you can hear a swooshing/scraping noise. It also happens when you rev the engine.
What could it be?

Is it called a fan shroud? My neighbor said it sounded like a "fan shroud" dunno what it is, is it an easy fix or does it need an entire replacement?
