I had that happen to two of my k11s in the same week, turned out that changing the two fan belts cured it.
Cost me £11 for both belts, but make sure you check the part numbers on your current belts match with the ones on the new belts because there is a smaller size belt that won't fit onto the power steering version.
Changing the fluid every 10 years is also recomended (Y)
