    Recently purchased an X1C gen 10 (i7-1270P) and the fan "gusts" to full speed for a second and then goes back to normal speed for no obvious reason. I returned the first laptop to Lenovo for a replacement and the second X1C10 does exactly the same thing!

    Sometimes the gusts happen once an hour, other times it is once a minute for hours and I find it distracting. At times it appears to be triggered by connecting the charger or opening an app, but other times the gust appears to be random.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix? I really like the laptop otherwise. Windows 11 is up to date and the Lenovo software is also all up to date. The laptop is factory out-of-the-box stock.

    Thanks!

    Lenovo replaced the fan and motherboard and so far it appears to have resolved the issue.
