I'm surprised with how well this video has done. A few weeks after doing this, the noise came back and I clumsily broke some of the blades on one of the fans. I ended up buying some third party fans which cost me (I think) around 160 yuan or 20 USD. The new fans I purchased are from a company called FCN and although they are not perfect, are much quieter than the original ones. If you are unable to get new fans or are really tight on cash, feel free to try what is done in the video, but I would recommended buying third party replacement fans and being done with it. I decided to not make a video on replacing the fans since it is pretty simple and I was tight on time, but one thing to look out for is the little pieces of adhesive that hold the fans to the chassis, once you unscrew all the screws just pull the fans out even though there will be a little bit of resistance.
ArduinoBen did the exact same thing u did in the vid, except I also put tape on the holes where you screw the lid of the fan back on but I don’t think that was the issue. I’m thinking of buying a pair of replacement fans as well, could you maybe send a link? Are they an improvement over the old ones?? Thank u for making such a thorough video, you’re appreciated 😊☺️!!
@@XookUp I bought some from a company called FCN, the first search on Taobao, there is definitely and improvement, but the fans are still loud. I think I'll try lithium grease with these new fans as someone else suggested.
if you're in SH take it to the xiaomi store at tianmu xi lu near sh railway station and they will fix anything for free. My motherboard fried and was out of warranty and they fitted a new one for free
@@Lanky009 Oh wow, I might do that then. The only issue is that I'm not sure how they would fix this issue apart from replacing the fans since I'm pretty sure even the current models have this issue too.
what model of FCN you bought?
Great video bud! Same issue, it was driving me insane. I had a bussing sound every few seconds from the fans, grinding to a hault and restarting. So I opened it up, cleaned it, and added some grease I had laying around that I usually use to lubricate the gears on my rc cars. Seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks for the video, saved me a lot of time!
Thank you, worked for me. I've had problems with the left fan. I have sprayed several squirts of silicone oil into the space in between the bearing. Needed multiple tries until the unsteady noise disappeared completely. The unsteady noise still appears sometimes when spinning the laptop around its axes, but for working positioning no problems anymore. Great!
(Edit: the suggested BIOS Update before didn't change anything regarding the noise - the update seems to change the temperature-fan speed-curve only)
Thank you for the Video! Today I fixed mine. I didn't clean it up so carefully (no full water bath, only some Q-tips with alcohol and vaccuuming away the dust). I opened just the Fan-Top-Case (small screws) and put one drop of oil in the bearing. All perfect: no vibrating noise, just the blowing air (and due to dust removal that doesn't happen so often/quick).
I have replaced both fans, and after a couple of months it was the same. So I tried the grease and it worked (I did not clean the parts). One more thing I noticed is that even with grease, at first, there was slight rubbing when moving the fan. So I fiddled with it some more, and pushed the fan back in, buck applying a little bit of force. After some initial trials it seems to have worked.
Just thinking out loud here, but I carry my backpack to work in the paneer on some bumpy roads. As the fan is not really secured by anything else other than magnets, could all the bumping/ chock kind of move it slightly out of place?
Anyhow, applying some grease, and maybe pushing it in so far (20min in) seem to have done the trick
[EDIT]
After a day some noise came back, and cleaning the blades/ case didn't help. What did help however was cleaning the electromagnets with a q-tip. Just going to leave it here.
Thanks, man! It is a really annoying issue that I hope to minimize, at least, with your instructions.
You will forever have a special place in my heart❤
I had the same problem ! When I move a litlebit the computer, the fan vibrate and stop. I cleaned the dust and put some grease on the axle of the fan. It solve the problem 😉
enjoyed this vid a lot good work :)
Thank you so much! I just cleaned the fan and put some oil. The fan noise has stopped and hope it will last!
Thanks for the helpful video!
Did it improve the temperature of the laptop?
5:00 How to turn on the fan when the position is off? or use the app?
I have the exact same problems you have, especially when you said the fans stop when the laptop gets rotated! I used to not have these problems but lately since I'm bringing my laptop to school, I have to rotate it to put it in my bag and the laptop can't handle that.
Honestly idk if it can really be fixed :(
@@Ben.N yeah it sucks... because other than the fans, it is a really good laptop
Did you manage to fix it?
Thank you bro. Performance has improved.
:)
Thank you! I did the same you did and now my laptop runs extremely slow, any idea what it could be?
I had very serious fan issues where the fan would "crash" into the housing when spinning up. Eventually the controller notices this and deactivates the fan before spinning back up... repating this scratching/crashing cycle over and over.
I fixed it by cleaning the blades with a brush and in an ultrasonic cleaner. I also applied a tiny amount of light oil to central dome the blades are resting on (the silver pillar).
I had your own preoblem. I solved it completely by putting lithium grease. Initially I too had put oil, but after 2 weeks the noise returned. it's just a question of lubrication. Try it too, a year has already passed and the noise has never returned.
I've bought replacement fans but they still have this issue, I've seen a lot of people suggest lithium grease so I'll try to get a hold of some this summer and put it in. Thanks for the advice. :-)
Edit: It seems the blade can't be taken off the replacement fans I got, and I carelessly broke some of the fins on the old fans, so I'm not really sure about what I'm going to do. :-(
Hi, is the version of that bios?
Thanks for the video! im having the same issue with noisy fans. i may look into getting the 3rd party fan you mention
Honestly the best solution is probably lithium grease, this didn't fully fix it for me.
HI ArduinoBen, I am having this issue for a year now and just got used to the noise but it still bugs me. I having following different forums regarding this topic and so far no permanent issue was posted. I am however curious about the comment of one user here who said that the bios update made his unit silent for almost a year. I was hoping if you know what bios version is that?
I don't know which BIOS version it was off the top of my head, but it only made the fan curve less aggressive, so if you do any gaming or creative work the fans will still make that noise.
I couldn't find which BIOS version people said affected it, but I have the latest version so it doesn't completely solve the problem.
I guess we should just give up on this one :( It's been a year and I haven't find any permanent fix yet. Thanks for the information.
Hey buddy! Crime documentaries are also my favorite. The latest video is quite ambitious; you should watch it. Don't hold back your comments; let's discuss this story together. Stay healthy!
Nice video, mate! I'm actually having the same issue. Thought I was the only unlucky guy. Will try cleaning the lubricating the fans in a few days.
Good luck, if it doesn't work is reccomend buying aftermarket third party fans. I ordered some a few days ago and will tell you how they are..
@@Ben.N thanks for this. Would you mind sharing which third party fans you purchased, which would be compatible with the notebook pro. Thanks
They're from a company called FCN, they ship with this laptop now and still have the issue, albeit not as severely as before, for me, the fan blade can also not be removed for lubrication so I'm not sure if you should buy them.
@@Ben.N too much money
Too little talent
@@pit3822 huh?
Hi @arduinoben ! Do you have any video or any link to see how to replace the keyboard of this laptop? Thanks in advance!
Please help! I got to the point where I disassembled the cooler, but I cannot remove the fan blade from the motor, like you did at 5:47. Am I missing something? I try to remove it, but it is stuck. Thank you!
Hmmm, which model do you have, is it the new GTX model? If it is Xiaomi may have updated the fans.
Edit: According to Robin, the FCN fans that ship with newer models cannot be taken apart like that. I'm afraid I don't think you're going to be able to do that.
@@Ben.N Oh... It is the mx150 model, that came with 603 bios or something like that. Thanks for info :(
Thnx! I'm gonna try this too...
Yes, it seems to have worked! I opened up the fans, brushed out the dust and put a drop of oil on the axis. Silent so far :)
if the noise comes back it means the oil is dry and need to put oil again. your lucky to have laptop that are easy to clean mine is so hard it need to disassemble the whole mobo just to clean the fan.
Thank u
Hey I know replacement fans are available on aliexpress, do you think swapping the fans for new ones will work? I am having the same issue.
I'm not really sure, I think this would be a bit of a gamble since the problem isn't caused by user damage or normal wear and tear. I know some people don't have this problem, so if we got a bad batch you might get a good replacement set. But I wouldn't count on it, the replacements could have the same issue.
I have the 2018 original model. I looked earlier but cannot find if they have fixed these issues.
Also, I'm experiencing some more issues with the fans so I've decided to buy some replacement fans. I've purposely chosen to buy third party ones and I think they will work much better than the original ones.
@@Ben.N would you mind sharing which third party fans you purchased, which would be compatible with the notebook pro. Thanks
The replacement fans aren't perfect but they are still loads quieter than the old ones. They are from a company called FCN.
