Mine is the same, same age. I assume it’s filled with 5 and a bit years of house dust and needs blowing clean so it can stay cool like it used to. I keep meaning to take it to the Apple store and get them to sort it, but haven’t had a window when I can do without it yet.

My MBP sounds like an airplane that's about to take off
Nice!
Do you go "woo-hoo!" and look out the window?

My MBP sounds like an airplane that's about to take off (well, not exactly) and gets really hot every time I use AutoCAD, Photoshop or similar. Or when I'm watching something while connected to an external display. I mostly have the external display connected an in use, with Spotify opened most of the time, as well as chrome and just finder etc doing normal work.
It's 16GB ram, with an i7 processor at 2.6ghz. Mid-2012 retina 15".
Is that normal or is there something that can be done to sort out that heat and noise?
