Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Ticking Coming From Passenger Side Glovebox Area When HVAC Running?

Drove my truck for the first time in a few months and there was a noticeable ticking coming from the passenger side glovebox area when the HVAC is running. I cycled between AC and fresh air and the sound persisted. What it could be?

Took a quick video on my phone, you'll have to turn up the audio to hear the ticking : 2011 F350 HVAC ticking - YouTube ....

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Clicking Noise From Passenger Side Brake When Coming To A Stop

The other day, I changed my front brakes just the pads. Everything came out smooth but then later that day i started to notice a clicking noise coming from the passenger side brake I suppose. You can't hear it when you drive or when braking early but you start to hear it when the car slows down and your coming to a stop. Its a constant clicking noise within like 1 or 2 seconds of each other. Its not loud, but its very noticeable with music off. And not to mention, very annoying.

I'm about to take everything apart and reinstall everything to see whats up. BTW its a 2006 GS300 Front brakes. Finding a picture of the wheel off with rotors and whole brakes on. I think I might of put on a clip wrong.

Phaeton :: 2004 - Clicking Noise Coming From The Front Passenger Side Of Engine

I've only started noticing this recently. I have a 2004 W12 with roughly 75k miles. It seems to only happen after the engine warms up, but even then its seemingly randomly. I'll notice a clicking sound coming from the front passenger side of the engine. The sound increases in frequency as I rev the engine. I have no check engine lights and no noticeable loss of power. Its not a radiator fan since the sound is still audible when the hood is open. I'm getting no CAN errors with my generic OBDII scanner (I know its not a VAG-COM but hey).

I've been reading up on the possibility of it being a bad valve lifter. I don't know much about them and was hoping to get some advice here before I go about asking my dealership to diagnose the sound. I found this random article through google vaguely talking about replacing the lifter. The person says its "reasonable and inexpensive".

I also stumbled across this thread here describing what sounds similar. Although the thread provides no closure it seems towards the end people are hinting that the engine needs to be pulled? This is contradictory to the first source I found. My question is, say it was a bad lifter, whats the extent of work required to fix it? The Parts seem to be really cheap if I'm looking at the correct stuff?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clicking Or Tapping Noise Coming From Passenger Side Of Engine Bay

1.8T... Finding the source of a weird clicking noise I keep hearing. Ever since I changed the motor mounts (although I am not sure if this has anything to do with it) after the engine warms up or after some driving, when the engine is idling I hear a clicking or tapping noise coming from the passenger side of the engine bay. It doesn't seem to tied to the rpm; I can rev the engine a little without the tapping going faster, and when a shift between neutral or park or drive the tapping will briefly slow down almost to a stop before going back to its regular pace. After the revs get above 1500 or so it seems to stop.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Clicking Noise Coming From Passenger Side Like Springs Are Loose

I just replaced the drums, shoes and hardware.

Everything went together with out issue but now when I put on the brakes there is a clicking noise coming from the passenger side, kind of like something is hanging up. sounds like one of the springs are loose. But when I took the drum off everything is tight and nothing is out of alignment.

Do drums need a break in period? Wondering if maybe there is a sharp edge and its making the shoe uneven on the drum and causing if to hang up when I put on the brakes.

Golf/GTI VI :: CEL For EVAP Code P0456 - Clicking / Tapping Noise Coming From Rear Passenger Side

My CEL came on a few weeks ago on my 2010 gti, I scanned it and got a code for evap (P0456). I figured it was from filling the tank while the car was running, so I cleared it and went on with my week. About a week later it came back on and when I scanned it, I got the same thing. I haven't had time to smoke test the system but the last couple days i have heard a clicking/tapping noise coming from the rear passenger side of the car. Could the flapper in the filler neck be malfunctioning or gas cap be leaking.

Passat (B5) :: 2000 - Loud Noise Coming From Passenger Side Under The Hood

So I just picked this car up, (2000 20v turbo passat) 93k miles and I did a tune up (plugs, air filter, oil change w/ oil stabilizer, and injector cleaner) when i was out beating on the car a little, afterward I got to a stop sign, and i heard a VERY LOUD noise coming from the passengers side under the hood, it almost sounded like a loud motor, or the turbo but it was too loud to really determine... it was only there for about 10 sec then turned off but came on again about 1 min later. is this a bad bearing in the turbo? or what might it be?

Ford Excursion :: 2004 - AC To Heater - Clicking Noise Behind Glovebox

We have a 2004 Excursion limited edition with 6.0 diesel. This is a recent purchase for our family. This is our first ever Ford and our first ever Diesel.

Now that we are transitioning into colder weather, we recently tried to place the air from AC to Heater. When we tried, we noticed a clicking or hitting noise from the passenger side behind the glove box. When we stopped the air, the noise stopped. When we kept it on the AC, it stopped. Last night we tried to replicate the issue to get more info and we saw that now its stuck on heater and we lost the AC cold air. The module that is making noise is behind the glove box. It is not coming from the actuator that moves air from the feet to the vents, but it is to the right of the actuator and has a plug with about 4 cables plugged into it.

Questions:

What is this module so that I can order a new one?

Does this sound like a bad HVAC blend door actuator? (not trying to steer it that way if its not.)

Any videos on how to replace it? I only see one bolt that mounts it and it appears to be about 8 mm. Is that the only thing holding it?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Noise Like Telegraph Clicking In Random Intervals Behind Glovebox?

So I started hearing a noise that sounded like a telegraph clicking in random intervals. Some days, no sound while others I thought I was an old Western Union Office. Now the sound has progressed into a sound that almost sounds like a small compressor. It sounds at each start up and then at different points during the drive. I have traced it back to this device. It sits to the left of the Air return behind the glovebox. I have two pics to illustrate. It is the black box with a small wiring harness plugges into the top. On the left side there is a cylindrical white piece that is part of this device. Everything in my car works so not sure what this thing does. It looks like a royal pain to get out as one of the bracket screws is down in the back so that screw will be tough to get to without dropping the blower housing. That may require pulling more things like the dash when they replaced the evaprator.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: 2012 - Clicking Coming From Passenger Side Vent / AC

I've got a 2012 Hyundai Sonata LTD and have been loving it for the past year (bought it certified pre-owned last February). I've noticed, however, that there is a clicking coming from the passenger-side AC vent or general passenger-side dashboard area. It seems to be somewhat tied to whether I have the air recirculation (outside air) button turned on or not. I typically use my front defrost a lot, which, when enabled, shuts of the air recirculation button. This seems to encourage the clicking sound, whereas if I turn on the air recirculation, the clicking eventually goes away after the car warms up and after ~10 minutes.

From my internet research, it would seem that other types of cars have reported a similar issue and it's been attributed to either a bad actuator or something called recirculation failure. Here's the link to what seems to be a near identical problem for a different make, model, and brand of car [URL] ...

Prius C :: 2015 - Rhythmic Clicking And Clattering Coming From Passenger Side

Yesterday night I bought my first Prius--a brand new 2015 C2. All seemed perfectly fine till I was driving home from work this evening. I had the passenger window down and noticed a rhythmic clicking and clattering coming from that side anytime I drove past something to echo it back. This was going at about 25 mph in a residential area. It almost sounded like when you have some gravel stuck in the tire, except no gravel and it sounded more mechanical. It was very noticeable. No sound at all coming from the driver's side open window. I took it back out for a couple more drives to confirm that the sound was continuing.

When I drove it off the lot yesterday it had 40 miles on it--the dealer said someone had likely taken it home to show a family member, then brought it back. I truly don't remember hearing a sound like this when I test drove it, but the conditions were very different (other people in the car, window rolled up). I didn't notice this sound this morning, either.

The thing that is extra concerning to me is that on the way home tonight there was some roadwork where the pavement had been stripped from a section, then a large bump where the regular pavement resumed. I slowed down as much as traffic around me but still hit the bump much harder than I would have liked, especially for my brand new car. It was after that that I first noticed the rattling, a little ways down the road.

The car is making so many new-to-me sounds that I truly have no idea if this is just a normal sound or if I should be concerned. The tires look ok, I don't see anything obviously wrong when I look under the car.
