Default Weird buzzing noise!!! Searched!!! Please help!!!

Ok I was doing my oil change today and heard a weird buzzing noise somewhere in the engine bay. It only happens when the engine is off, it starts and then it fades off. It happens often! Please help!!!

I do have another problem where my radiator fan doesn't switch on sometimes and my car starts to overheat only in idle and when I give it some gas it goes back down to normal temp. I know that i have a bad switch for that but I don't know if this problem is causing the other problem?

Your cooling problem sounds like a sticky thermostat

The buzzing noise could be anything....does it do it with the keys on II, on I, or completely out?

It just want's physical affection.

Where do you "think" it is coming from? You say you go to examine it and it goes away... Maybe there is moisture on and electrical connecting. It's a buzzing sound, not like a fizzing sound? like a bad hose or something?

Do you have any after market electrical crap on your car? Like alarm system, ghetto-rig audio, anything...?

The only this that I can think of is the check the fuse box up at the top right, maybe you have a bad connection some where.
