rear air conditioning noise

Has anyone had experience with the rear air conditioning system making excessive fan noise even on a low speed setting? It is intermittent and could be a fan motor bearing or it may have some paper etc interfering with the fan blades. Has anyone else had this happen to their car? I would pull it apart and check it out but it is a little daunting when you sit in the back seat and actually look at what you have to do.

Rear AC?? Do you mean that little vent on the rear of the center console?

Fan noise

Did you manage to get rid of the noise? I just removed my rear ac cover to access the fan tunnels. I blew them out with compressed air. Still can't get rid of this low fan noise. Only does it on low speeds. Really bloody annoying
