View Full Version : Noise from air-con fan

Everytime I turn on the fan/air-con, there's this ticking sound which resembles the fan spinning and hitting a tiny pebble/rock. That makes sense to me cos I only noticed this noise after parking on a coarse gravel laden road.

What should I do? Is there a way I can get rid of the tiny rock myself, or will I need to have the the fan area serviced?

Thanks.

That sounds exactly like the problem I have...say I have the fan turned on at 1 and the noise comes on, I switch to 3 or 4 for a few seconds, switch back to 1 and it's gone.

I would take it apart if I had the know-how, but since I don't, I was actually hoping someone could give me some advice on this matter.

:shock: My G/F's EK4 has the same problem............... on the left hand side of the cabin.

And I have been meaning to have a look at it for the last 4 months! :wink:
