Sounds like it is going out. Not alowing slippage like it should. Does it ever not howl? If not then replace the fan clutch.

Something I noticed also, is that a aftermarket fan clutch is much noisier then the factory, not freeing up nearly as soon. I recommend getting a factory replacement clutch.

99% of the time when I hear this it turns out the clutch is locked or near locked and is causing the problem. I'll bet your mileage dropped too didnt it?
