Flapping noise from heater

As the title says, I have a flapping noise coming from the heater from about 40mph onwards. I stripped the heater down and found nothing loose but the noise is still there.

Any suggestions?

Every so often I get a flapping noise from the front of my van,I think it is the two cardboard bits each side of the radiator, have you looked at them?

What, "just like that" :wink: Dash out :twisted:

Mine does it too, usually clatters around a bit then settles, like a loose flap blowing in the draft, then settling somewhere, plus my blower is creamed.

The van is in getting a full resto at the moment (long story) and when I asked would they fit the blower motor (and investigate the flapping noise in there) they said "Yes no bother" :)

Sorry this ain't much help is it...
