So they are going to ask BMW Canada for authorization and get a replacement. I will have to wait for like a week. This stupid unit costs ~1900 CAD before tax...rediculous
I have no idea how the previous dealer thought it was from a "tiny fan inside"....
Anyways, livinlife and -Vanguard-, maybe you can ask a dealer to check the climate control unit out?

Yea, im already booked for a Jan 12th appointment to replace the HVAC unit.
The thing is...it seems like its a lottery with these units. You might get another one that makes the noise. You have to make sure they keep replacing it until you get one that's good.
Tell them to use the unit from your loaner if that one is good LOL
