Dash rattle
Blower motor was replaced because of a fault code found in diagnostic test. Now I have a rattle coming from somewhere in the center dash. Not constant but an annoyance on bumpy surfaces. Is this going to be a nightmare to find and repair properly the first time? Furthermore, any suggestions (from a tech's point of view) as to what I should recommend they look for without having to go through numerous road tests? I want my cabin silence back the way it was!!

If the rattle started after the blower was replaced then I would suggest to have them (or yourself) check on the pieces they had to remove to get the blower out... Personally, this is my biggest complaint about any service center doing work on my vehicles and bike's too.... Seems what ever the wrenches touch it never goes back the same way...
