DrD123 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 sounds like a blend/mode door motor fluttering to me. Those sounds can come and go (i have heard it a few times in my car) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either LITERALLY take apart the whole dash to get at the top screw. Or what I did was use a boroscope camera attached to my phone (To see the screw head) and a flexible drill bit extension (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0822K6GN8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to get to the top screw. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creep_nu Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 lol no worries, good luck...it looks like if you've got small enough hands you can get in there without taking the dash off, but...might just be better to take the dash off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphex28 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 My method took me about 1.5 hours. spending about 40+ minutes just trying to reach the screw and turn it with the drill bit extension 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creep_nu Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 did you just leave the top screw out? or did you work on getting it back in? i've got an AC problem i'm waiting on parts for now, myself...just wondering if it's strong enough with only 2 screws to avoid having to put it back *in* using that flexy thing if i hvae to go that route Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything worth doing is worth doing right... Either way, I don't think it would work great with only 2 screw in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcor Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Mine makes that noise as well. Wasn't too worried about it, but I do have an inspection camera. Might try to tackle this later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aphex28 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 hehe. Yeah I decided to do it before I needed to pick my daughter up from school. Bad decision, but I did get it in with only a little time to spare. Do wish I could put her child seat in my miata to pick her up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
