from the minute i started using the vaio f13 there has been a low level beeping noise coming from the fan. i have found an exact match for the problem on you tube
YouTube - Sony Vaio F12 - VPCF12S1E Lüftergeräusch (fan noise)
does anyone know if this is fixable and if not should i chance a replacment or is it inherent in that model?

Mine had this well. And one person I met on other forum told, me he had this even on F11 (multiple pieces). So it's not a single F problem. More like many, if not all, have this.

I claimed my cuz of this... officially service replaced fan (who knows if they rly did) and it's doing the same! So now trying to get refund from seller... I think your chances, to get this solved with replacement, are low. But you can always try.

Noise of fan is annoying alone... with this beep beep it's even worse ><
Maybe if it was a PC under table or something... but I work with it at night at normal distance and just heart it.

My girlfriend has a F11, and I have two collegues who own a F12 and F13. THey all make the beeping noise from the fans.
