    Remove the batteries out of the vibrator that fell there.....LOL

    sorry mate, couldn't help myself....

    no hard feelings ey?

    seriously thou, remove the glovebox and then go for a drive and see if you can get a passenger to pinpoint where the vibrating is coming from....

    My engine cover was a little loose because of the CAI. It could be that vibrating around.

    Thanks, I actually took the glove box off and pin pointed the problem. It was a bunch of wires rubbing together. What I did was just taped up the bundles together. No BUZZ!!
