Vents make flapping noise

stevenshizzle · 10-18-2006, 01:06 AM

Not quite flapping, but definitely sounds like something inside is being "aggrevated" by the airflow. The higher I turn the air up, the more audible it is. Has anyone else experienced this?

My mom once had a dead chipmunk in the vents of her Corolla. We had no idea what the sound was until the car started smelling like poop on a burner.

i get this sound if i turn the fan all the way up. Aside from that, i don't hear anything. Ask the dealer to check it out.

Leaves sometimes can this problem. Sometimes leaves can get into the vent system and make noises when you put on the fan.
