After deeper investigation, I found a pattern:
When the engine temperature reaches 4 blocks (110 degrees C), the fan starts spinning at maximum speed loudly for 5 seconds. Then it repeats several times until the temperature reaches around 3 blocks (90-100 degrees C).
I asked several mechanics, and they all said this is normal.
I don't really think this is normal as I have never heard the fans so loud before.
I am guessing if it could be one of my temperature sensor failing?
Or could a lack of coolant cause the problem? My coolant level is just a tiny bit above the minimum.
P.S. My warranty already expired, so I am seeking advise here.
Thanks!!

Replace your water cooling pump. Apparently it is failing, but slowly.
