    I did replace the clutch fan the last service I had so 1.5 Years ago the fan clutch was replaced, Although i had road debris fly up and they broke apart the fan blades and put a softball hole through the radiator, so at that time I had it all replaced. No Cheap stuff got it

      OK, then you are all good there.  The accessory kit I mentioned above should be good.  Do you not run a belly pan?  How did stuff get up there?

            That is a kit, not sure if it's the one for your car.

                Sucks to do the maintenance, but it feels so good when it's done.

                    Is it whiney becasue of the cold?  Power steering in any car gets noisy in the cold.  Otherwise the bearing in the pump could be going out.  Fixing everything else on the accessory belt system will magnify another problem.

                      Id say more on the whiney cold as no noise when it was warm out but its been so long since then.
