Metallic noise from vent fan... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have seen that people have been noticing this issue where there is a metallic noise from the air vents at low RPM of the fan...

Did anyone get a fix for this ??
Its the only issue that has been bugging me with the car

Thanks

I think I know what you are talking about. A fan noise of sorts happens right on my favorite fan speed (just left of center). If I turn it down to lowest speed, no noise. If I turn it up to center or above, the sound of air drowns out any fan noise so it doesn't matter. I'm just dealing with it for now because I'm afraid the fix would be to take the whole dash out to replace something because of a "little noise". It's my only beef with the car too. Going got just wait until it drives me completely nuts or just before warranty expires...whichever comes first I guess. Good luck.

I have the same "noise", so did the 4 other camaro's on the dealer lot when I checked last year. Was informed by the regional guy that it had to with the hose and duct design in the car. It doesn't bother me, I just wanted to know since he was there anyways.
