Annoying clicking from dashboard

Sebastienclement · 4th November 2019, 09:44

Hi all,

This has been happening sporadically for the last year or so, and I assume it's a something sticking to do with the heater behind the dashboard. Sounds like a tapping noise behind the dashboard from the middle somewhere - as if something is repeatedly trying to adjust but unable to. Noise is similar to the various clicks the dashboard makes when you turn the car off (all my 75s have done this).

It's not in a regular pattern, and often switching between Econ and aircon will trigger it.

Has anyone run into something similar? I don't want to start pulling the dashboard apart if I can help it, as apart from this annoying noise, the interior is rattle-free!
