Bob,

I hate to tell you this but it's probably not the little fan.  Iasked a similar question to this list about 2 or 3 months.  Thelittle fan is a real pain to replace but I did it.  I owe you awrite up and have done about 1/2 of it but again that's probably not theproblem.  After replacing the little fan I took a 2 hour trip toIowa.  About an hour into the trip the squeal came back.  I dida bit more research on the internet and came across a posting that saidthat the noise was due to the brushes being nearly worn out in the a/cblower fan.  I may go down this path but I've got a feeling that itwould be a major pain to get at the blower fan.  I may just turn upthe radio.

Hi Y'all,



My urS6 has started to develop an annoying squeal which sounds like

it comes from the little cabin air temperature sensor under the 

little grille to the right center of the dash.  The chipmunks go to

sleep if I stop the HVAC blower.  I suspect that if I could get some

decent lubrication in there that my problem would be solved.



So what's the trick?  Just spray some Kroil into the grille opening

and hope it gets to where it needs to be?  Or pull the entire dashto 

get to the chipmunk nest?  Or?
