    Blower motor making funny noise

    It sounds like there's paper stuck in it or something...is it on it's way out?

    Outer "bearings" are worn out and they cant be changed, that sound is the shaft having to mutch room and rattles. Buy a new blower, only takes 0,5 hour to get it changed.

          Lolcantfunny . Don't know what a broken blower motor does, it blows well and the dash doesn't vibrate, thought it could be a disturbance somewhere.

            It will get worse, ive been there..
            There is btw two different fans as ive found out. If the housing is made from plastic (as mine late model w/o ac) its the smallest one, and if its made from metal its the biggest.
            Theres around 5cm difference between them in overall length.
