Blower Motor Noise Poll

Mine squeaks. Doesn't drive me nuts thought.

 

My squeaked, then go it fixed. Now it clicks lol thanks toyota for putting in these cheap viet names made parts

 

Suppose to have a new part number for it. So it might be fix fixed

 

Still waiting for an actual fix . If the new motors are using bearings rather than bushings , it should do the trick , Over a thousand hits on this post :

I'm in for one If the price is good ? My wife hates that noise in my 06, i just barely hear it though LOL i.know mine was replaced once from previous owner...

 

That's the one thing I hate about my truck. I'm in if you get a part #. no matter the cost

 

Hello Jon850,

I haven't tried that fan. I sent the seller a question and asked them if it has bearings or bushings. The listing says bearings, but I doubt it. There are a few aftermarket fans on Amazon, but the reviews don't give me enough confidence to buy one. I hate fixing things more than once.

 

My original fan from my '06 is just weak. I've taken it apart twice and used an air compressor to blow all the dust and debris out of it, did some dry graphite powder for lube, and it worked pretty good for about 6 months. It's so weak that sometimes I have to whack on the bottom of the blower motor under the dash to get it to start turning, then it goes. I want my a/c blower power back!

 

Did it ever occur to you that bad parts might be made anywhere in the world, including the US? It's a global economy and parts will be produced wherever it's cost effective and nativism isn't going to change that.

 

I believe the one toyota installs is a new delphi il check but I'm 99% sure

 

Mine sounds like a donkey trying to shit a cantaloupe when it starts up

 

That sounds interesting

 

And you know that sound how???

 

Op - to help Jorge know how many people would buy from him, maybe add a poll for "drives me crazy and I'd go for a group buy from Camelback?"

 

BudMan, that's a good idea. I'll put that up tonight after the kids go to bed.

 

Mine was replaced under warranty @12k.

 

Turn on the fan in the morning

 

I sprayed some dry teflon bicycle chain lube in mine last June. Has been quiet ever since.

 

Hello Captchas, I was expecting that Toyota would only provide the basic warranty on the part. My '11 is at 47k, so I'm out of warranty. I actually don't blame Toyota for not covering it, as the warranty was clearly stated when I bought the truck. I do think they could provide a better price on the replacement fan, and still make plenty of profit.
