Interior Fan Noise.
Hello all.
There is a different noise the interior fan makes.
Sounds like the fan is almost out of balance.
You know the sound, when you were a kid, and did the play card in the spokes?
Sounds like that, but deeper sounding, almost like it is vibrating the dash..
It just came out of the blue last week..
Sounds like the noise is coming from the bottom of the dash, and goes with the RPMS of the fan.
What should i look at? nothing could of gotten past the cabin air filters, right?
I am going to take a look at them tomorrow, and then change them, as they are OEM from the factory in 03, 68K miles ago..
But i dont think changing the filter will change the noise as the noise seems like its the blower fan, or something. Anything to look at? Post a video? Anything?
Thanks!

Okay, well... it was the cabin air filters. they were shot, after 68K miles(Oem from factory in 03)
Also, I had to take the fan out, and clean that also, as stuff was stuck to that..
But good news it, all went back together, and now works 100% and with out a sound.
I bought them from Autozone, for $19.99
This does not look good..
What a mess.
All kind of stuff was in there.
This is what was caught in the fan...
New Vs Old.
I turned on the fan with out the filters in, to kind of clean everything out, and well, did just that. I just cleaned the interior 3 Hrs ago...
Box of new filter.
Back of new filter box.
