Hi all, I need help. My car is a 2008 Outlander

I have an annoying rattle/vibration coming from the front air vents/dash area.

I have narrowed it down to something to do with the air vents.

If the air is set to come from the front dash vents I can hear the rattle from behind the radio direction. No amount of building the dash or removing the dash and poking around stops the rattle.

As soon as I change the air to come out to the floor/feet area the rattle stops.

I'm stumped, can anyone help?

 

Rattle or growl? Does it change with fan speed? There was a recall in north America for fans on 08+. I had mine fail. An easy replacement.

 

Thanks for the reply

It's an annoying rattle, like a screw is loose, not a growl.

The fan itself seems fine, is only when front vents are used, if air comes out of other vents, floor or windscreen there is no rattle
