Default Help!!!!! Car has bubbling noise

I was sitting idle for about 10 minutes on Friday with my a/c running and I started to hear this bubbling noise under the hood. I immediately turned my car off b/c I nvr heard that sound before. 15 min later I drove my car w/no problems. Just today I heard the bubbling sound again coming from under the hood while at a light and then I noticed my temp gauge going up. The gauge goes back to normal when driving. I've read some of the other posts and went to do a test myself. I hear the fan start when the air comes on but not when I first start the car. When I turned the car off I could hear this hissing sound for a sec then it stopped. What are your suggestions? I'm a new cruiser.

Your radiator fan has two speeds, sounds like one of the speeds is not working. Do a search on fan speeds to see how to check it. Good Luck!!
