Hey guys we’ve been having some serious heat in North Dallas this month. I have noticed that my truck makes this noise as the heat gauge starts to increase. It’s like a fan is turning on/off every 2-5 seconds. I have it in sport mode to help keep the battery cool, as seen in the video. But something’s it’s in Normal mode and still will make the noise. Once I turn off the A/C it typically stops. I have a dealer appointment scheduled this weekend.
I’ve checked the front radiator and it’s clean and I even gently washed it off.
Has anyone else experienced this with their lightning?

It's definitely above midpoint, considering Dallas temp's another Texans opinion would be better than my New England observations.

I know it’s getting warmer. My concern is that it’s not able to cool the battery with the A/C on and that’s what causing the noises I am hearing. It can only hear it inside the truck.

Temperature at that level when it is 111 outside probably isn't an issue of concern if it doesn't continue to rise. I could not hear any sound on your video, so it is hard to comment on that.
