Gents,

My dad's suzuki GV's been having some rattling noise coming from the driver's a/c louvers since the day he got it. Anyone else here is facing the similar issue? The dealer have changed the entire louver assembly but yet the noise is still there.

He's a man with great patience hence never really bother but irritates me when I drive the car when I'm back home. smile_angry.gif

Its a 2011 GV and the mileage is still under 10k!

If I remembered correctly this is also a common problem for the previous model of Swifts as I notice the noise in one of the units I tested.

I'm rather disappointed as this unit is CBU Japan which is supposedly to have a good workmanship. I have not a single noise coming from my 07 Mazda 3 CBU and its a way older car!

TQ

The louvres are not of the same design as the Swift right? The one on my SX4 does not have rattle on the air cond louvre but the glove compartment handle.
