    Noise in the dash, HVAC? Coolant air pocket?

    Having a weird noise in my dash when I lightly rub the engine, it started after I took the intake cover off to look at my purge valve solenoid. I did not mess with the solenoid or anything. And now it’s making this weird noise like somethings falling inside the dash on the front right side.

    Was having this rattle noise, bought the plug-in AFM disabler and now the noise is back and it sounds like it’s getting worse. Oil always changed on time. I try to keep up and maintain what I can and know. This sucks.
