    Hey guys few days ago I start hearing a thumping noise like a tapping noise coming from what it seems to be below the glove box??? This happens when the ac is on or off and I also notice that happens more often when it's windy high winds outside Any ideas what this could be??? Ac blows nice and cold. Thanks in advance

    sometimes thing get through the vents and contact the blower fan wheel so pull the blower out and reach around to clean out anything that's in there. pine needles are the worst but I have even seen leaves get in there but it may also be an issue with the wheel itself
