Vent Noise

This is the clicking noise cause my improper installation of the cabin air filter. Someone installed the air filter without putting your car in recirculation mode and broke the flap.
It is a costly repair. The part is relatively cheap, but the labor to remove your dash will be very expensive. You can do a search to find the cost; I don't quite remember the cost, but i think its a couple hundreds

Wow that is terrible lol. I'm glad I did it properly when I changed my cabin filter. As with the post above, I believe some damage has already been done. Changing the filter now might now solve the problem as the flap might be broken.

So, I just went to change my cabin filter today and I noticed that I didn't have it on recirculation mode, but the flap comes up really easily, without any force. I am guessing the previous owner broke it? I just recently bought the car and it seems to be fine since I don't have that grinding noise? When I did put it in recirculation mode, the flap moves up just fine.
Should I be worried that I'll eventually have that problem too?

wow thats what it sounds like when its broken? dam i thought i broke mine as well because i didnt have it in recirc mode when i changed mine when i first bought the car. but mine makes a very faint "clunk" noise when it switches between recirc and fresh air mode. so maybe mine isnt broken at all because it sounds nothing like that.
hope you get it squared away man
