Default German mice?

Particularly from a cold start, with HVAC off, there is a repetitive clunking inside the center stack, behind the controls. It sounds like the vent door mechanism is trying to move or getting triggered by german mice leftover form the import.

It stops eventually, but it's loud enough that i hear it with the radio on 4 or 5 level. I'm due for my 15k service--I'm thinking I'll ask for a loaner for that story. Anyone experience this?

Default Yup. Very hard to reproduce on demand. Ask that service manager use it for a few days to try and

isolate it.

learned to just live with it since it does go away... Let us know wht you find out please...
