fan noise

If you're asking about the heater/Air Conditioner blower motor, there's
lots of information on the audifans.com archives (do a Google search on
blower motor).  I think the mid-90's S6 uses the same basic HVAC set-up as
all the 5000, 200 and V8 models used.  The blower motor has different part
numbers for different years, but the arrangement is about the same as far
as the fan and its motor in the heater core box is concerned.
