Hi, I just encountered a problem, I get a ticking noise coming from what seems to be a fan from the A/C vent on the right side, and this ticking speeds up if I increase the speed. Could this be a motor going, or simply something stuck? Help would be appreciated
 
I had the same problem. It went away after I maxed the fan out for a few seconds. I'd just run it at it's highest setting for about a minute. Then again, in your case that sound could be forshadowing empending disaster, so running it might not be the coolest thing to do. I'd honestly give it a try though.
 
yeah i tried that, but actually for more than 45 minutes, and the noise went down, its barely noticeable now when the engine is running, hopefully it isnt impending disaster
