Thinkpad T60 fans making sound

[techworld]

Hello all,

I had this thinkpad t60 for 10 months now, lately I noticed there's an noise coming from the fans located on the left side of the laptop when the systems heat up at 92º F.  The noise last about a few seconds during the warming up stage, then its quite like normal, it's repeats a few times during the laptop is ON.

I don't know if anyone has the same problem, I'm thinking of something might get stuck blocking the fans or the oil is dried out.

Any help would be appreciate.

Thanks.

We've had a number of T60s have their fans fail.  I think Lenovo got a bad batch.  I'd keep an eye on yours.

Hi,

since I still have the warranty, should I call Lenovo about it?

Yes, calling for support would be the best thing since it's under warranty.
