There is a clicking sound coming from the front passenger side of my dash. I have narrowed it down to being a problem with the Air Outlet Servo Sub Assembly. How should I go about correcting this dilema? If I choose the option to waste another perfectly good weekend on taking apart my only means of transportation (except for my bicycle), how should I go about doing this to avoid creating anymore havic on what seems to be a perfectly good car?

If you’re sure of your diagnosis, what are you afraid of?

You said it’s the “Air Outlet Servo Sub Assembly.”

Go for it.

Please let us know how it works out.

I was actually thinking that “go for it” would be option c.

Option a: turn up the radio  
Option b: dump the car & use the bike  
Option c: go for it.
