Internal Fan noise

Suppose it would have been helpful if I had said that it is a Vreg 2000,

Our 1998/S 306 has a noisy internal fan. Usually it is fine, but sometimes, and usually only on the lowest setting, you hear what I would describe as a squeak which sounds every revolution. I'm just guessing that the bearing or whatever is squeaking, and with higher speeds it's not noticable.

Anyone know the reason why the 306 internal ventilation fan cannot be turned off?

In my 1998/S Pug 306 the fan setting dial has 0ff/0,1,2,3,4 and a recycle setting (which just closes the external vents, fan remains off).

Correct. But if you took the fan out you would notice it turning very slowly when the dial is set to 0. Don't know the reason but all Peugeots do it. At least the pre-mux ones.

That's odd... most Phase I/IIIs have 'auto' then a sliding scale from 'MIN' to 'MAX' (no 'OFF' though). Unless the lack of 'off' is a consideration to do with the air-conditioning (keep the air moving?).

The 307 does have 'OFF' though (and most have A/C).
