fan question..

Today it was 103F and this is the first summer for the E350 and I noticed when I got the mail today the cooling fan was really loud I would say about twice as loud as the ML cooling fan. Are the E class fans just noisy? Normally you can barley hear the engine running compared to the ML but today the E sounded like a jet.

RE: fan question..

The E class(211) only has a large electric suction fan for engine and ac operation and cooling.
The ML(163) has a conventional engine driven fan/fan clutch and a additional ac auxiliary fan assembly to aid with cooling. So the 211 fan has to work a little harder under those conditions.
Hope this helps
