Just wondering if anyone would know what this problem is or how i can fix it?

When i get into the car and start it up, after about 10 seconds there's a whining noise as the climate control starts to work. It's like there's a fan struggling behind the dash. It goes away after aout 10 minutes, but it's just annoying me now.

Many thanks

In the middle is a opening, behind that is a little fan.

This is used to measure the inside temp.

I think that this is making the noise.

What year is your Omega?

The only thing I can think of is there is a small fan built into the dash on the mini facelift which is behind the vent.

I have the same problem with mine.  (Also posted in this forum "Heater Fan keeps blowing 30A fuse)  In my case, it turned out to be the blower motor behind the glove box/air bag/huge cable bundle/duct work.  I ignored the problem because it was intermittent.  Now my fuse keeps blowing and I'm still trying to figure out why.  I did buy a used motor/fan from ebay for 15 pounds - what a pain in the a$$ to put that one in.  The squeeling/grinding stopped but the fuse still keeps blowing.
