I searched in this forum for similar issues but couldn't find it but here it goes.
This sound is coming from the heater core area. Now I have no problems with heat or cold everything works fine. But this annoying sound. Now when you select a heating position you some times hear a flapping noise and grunting sound which is a door flap opening and closing. This is a light sound. The weird part is this when heat selector is off fan is off. Every 30 to 60 seconds later I hear this sound. Now when the heat and (fan set on 1) is on this sound never comes back on. I tried to explain this best I can....OH forgot this....When I shut the vehicle off key out this sound happens for about 10 sec. Weird or what..Any ideas out there let me know.


Thanks
 












it could be the vacuum coming out of the system,

if the heat is working fine, it's no big deal,,
 






my trac makes the same sounds. i've been questioning these sounds for a while now. when the fan is on, and i shut the rig off, after about 10 seconds or so, theres a brblrlbrlbb sound. my guess is its a dry bearing or bushing in the heater fan.
