common prob - if its the same noise i'm thinking of, its the mechanism moving that opens/switches the vents.

you might notice sometimes your A/C will switch to blow only

on your feet when you hear this noise. not everytime tho.

i can sometimes stop mine from making this noise by cranking up

the fan speed to max and then down again. also changing from

FACE to FEET and back to FACE stops its

give this a try

Yeah, lots of us have had this problem, I know what bit it is, but it costs alot to fix. I know how to get rid of the noise without fixing it, but after I did that my compressor seized, I don't know if the two are related.

See'ya:bunrout:

I just had mine fixed. $20 for the part and $65 for an hours labour (didn't have to pay it though 'cause the dealer agreed to get it fixed when I bought the car). It's just a little cog inside a little black box. I had to get the new box 'cause no where had the cog. $20 bucks for the box or $5 for the cog if ya can find it.

Just go to an airconditioning place!

yep, i had that problem the other day. it was bit hot for a couple of days here in perth so i was giving my A/C a hammering. (usually a non-a/c person)

anyways i started it up in the morning, after leaving over nite, obviuosly durrr... when the car jumped to life there was this weird noise. i had a listen for a bit, and it seemd to go a way as the car warmed up.

Could have been acat... hehehehe

      *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula

      Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT

      Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol.

      Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
