I am not sure if it is the radiator fan or not, but on start up and sometimes during regular driving a very distinct whirring noise comes from the front of the engine bay. Anybody ever have this issue?

Check to make sure your radiator fan doesn't have some debris stuck in it. A friend's car has similar symptom: New noise coming from fan area. Turns out he had picked up some junk from the road that was rubbing the fan, making an awful racket. Cleaning it out was all it took to fix it.

Sounds like the high-speed fan coming on.
