Try blowing out the fan with compressed air to remove dust.

If this does not help then the fan bearings are failing and the fan should be replaced.

"Some" parts can be purchased here: https://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/ProductQuickSpec.jsp?BV_SessionID=@@@@2124190899.1309418702@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccfdadfdmhejgjlcfngcfkmdhjidfmh.0&cookies=no&infoType=Related&BV_EngineID=ccfdadfdmhejgjlcfngcfkmdhjidfmh.0&oid=11085&cookies=no&BV_SessionID=%40%40%40%402124190899.1309418702%40%40%40%40&nextPage=&query=

I recommend that you send it into a service shop.  The fan will not be easy to replace.
