VY Calais Series 2
Hi everyone,

Just curious if anybody who owns a vy calais (or similar) has experienced a ticking noise when the aircon/heating unit is switched on.

I have tried to cover the sound with some music but you can still hear the noise very subtlety.

Cheers

Its not just the plastic vents expanding due to the heat passing through them is it,next time it does it try placing a finger on them too see if it stops or changes the noise,could be it!!!!!!!!!

Crawl under the passenger side dash.....I'll bet a piece of paper or something is caught in the fan motor.
I had a leaf caught in mine....the ticking drove me mad for a while.
