Is it fixable?

hope so, it’s annoying AF. Even my wife who hates cars was annoyed by it when I took her for a little cruise a few days ago. Assume if wing can be removed then it can be tightened, just too busy to dig into it just now.

Defective fan relay? (Does the 992 even have a fan relay?)

I have been driving a 991.2 GT3 RS for the last 2 years and 25k miles… its noisy but the noise in the RS has character and is absolutely lovely and addictive !
.. not a constant and monotonous humming of fan in one’s ear.
