I have a 2001 Ford Escort 82000 miles.
Recently I am facing a problem with my car.
Some Noise is coming from engine area. (Not sure whether it is from Engine )
Noise is similar to the noise when we use the Air condition in the car. And with in minutes I start the car the Temperature meter is rising to show High.
If I continue driving the car some times the temparature meter is coming to the middle. And some times again going to the High.
Please advice what would be the problem with the Noise and temparature meter.
Note: This car is sparingly used. In a week around 20 Miles.

The noise that you are hearing is the fan kicking on. Apparently the car is reachiing a higher than normal temperature and the fan kicks in to cool it down. Check your coolant level first and make sure that it is o.K, If it is not that it can be numerous different things. Check this first and get back to me. :)
