Anyone else got a rattle in the dash when fan on?
Recently purchased an M235i second hand. On the way home I noticed an annoying rattle in the dash area that occurs between 1500 and 3000RPM consistently and relative to RPM, but ONLY when the Air Conditioning fan is running! Turn the fan off and the noise goes away entirely!
Curious to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and can point me in the right direction before I start pulling things apart. It's definately inside the car (not the engine cover gutter plastic). Thinking it may be a loose cabin filter. Will report back if I find the cause. |

Same problem on my car (2015 m235). The dealer removed the glovebox and replaced the plastic fan. The new fan was quiet for about a month and the noise is back only when the fan is set to middle or high setting. Went back to the dealer they said its working properly... Which I don't get because its a loud humming noise. I've owned BMW's for 25 years and the AC fan was never this loud.. My fix I'm keeing the setting on low to avoid getting pissed off...
