When the A/C is on i hear a noise comming from the passenger side vent. It sounds like a piece of paper being hit by a fan. Thats the best way to describe the noise. What do u think it could be??

Do you have an idea of how to get to it?

Well you can either blow the fan on hi speed for a bit and hope it works it way out. Actually it will wind up in the A/C coils. I guess if you really wanted to get it out and make sure your system is clean (might have more stuff in there) then you need to remove the blower assembly. It's located under the glove box. Perhaps Danial B. could advise you of the procedure for removing it.

Not quite sure

Not really sure what it is but it could be a leaf but i might just have to take it down to an A/C place and tell them to do what they have to do. It is just an annoying kinda noise, i'm sure it isn't going to hurt ne thing. Thanks for your help!!

Removing the blower motor is a job which may be done by the home mechanic. This procedure is covered in the Chilton repair manual (page 6-8) and the Haynes repair manual (page 3-8).
