VR-Sixy 0 Posted October 6, 2016 This always happens when the weather starts to cool down a bit. Switch the blower on and this noise starts up right away. I have taken it all apart, and when the fan itself is out of the housing, it's as quiet as a church mouse! Put it back in, and it starts playing up again. I've checked the housing and there's nothing in there at all, it's been wiped out and the air feed in the scuttle tray has also been cleared and a new gasket put on. Anyone have any ideas?? Ta!

MZpog 10 Posted October 6, 2016 Anyone have any ideas?? Ta! Sounds like you've covered everything so my only suggestion would be to turn the radio up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted October 6, 2016 Mine was doing the same, i took it apart and broke it so had to buy another one, was a non-genuine one and not too expensive, its been fine since. http://www.eurocarparts.com/heater-motor might be a promo code as well to make it even cheaper Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might invest. Did the new motor/fan fix it completely Jim? Edited October 6, 2016 by VR-Sixy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted October 6, 2016 Well it was my motor making the noise and a new one got rid of the noise, i seem to remember it wouldn't make the noise on all speeds, i took it out and cleaned it which stopped the noise for a short while and then it returned. I guess the fans strains a bit more when its in the housing instead of just spinning freely in mid air. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 14 Posted October 7, 2016 the heater blower's were noisey on both my VR & 16v replaced them with an ebay one for under £30 - here you go - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/INTERIOR-HEATER-BLOWER-MOTOR-VW-CORRADO-192959101-/321157973200?hash=item4ac681c4d0:g:ZAwAAOSwv0tVgFEz now both powerful & quiet :) & a guide on changing just in case (though note the is a small clip which you need to pull down to allow the motor to rotate out) http://website.lineone.net/~quigger/heater.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
