[QUOTE="appleism, post: 1378527, member: 241334"] Hi all. I have recently (about 2 weeks ago) found out that the fan of my 13 inch-Macbook Pro (mid 2009 model) has some grinding noise when it was operating. So I thought there might be some dust and I opened it up, cleaned it (only the surface area though as I did not want to mess other things up) but the noise were still here. The grinding noise is especially loud when I start or awake the MBP from sleep, and after that it is not as loud. So I am just wondering if any of you experts might diagnose this grinding issue. And approximately how much does it cost if I bring it to the genius bar to have some experts fix it for me? [B]FYI: The noise is exactly the same as shown in this video.[/B] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fApf6kxD6F8&feature=related]MacBook Pro 13 inch Fan Grinding Sound - YouTube[/url] Thanks in advance for any helpful comments. ;) [/QUOTE]
