I've got same thing...seemingly random whirring noise behind dash. Yesterday in Park I pressed and released the brake to see if was the brake booster. Every 4th pedal depression, the whirring started. Without pressing brake, theres no whirring.

So a few scraped knuckles, broken clip things, and a bunch of cursing...
Hi All,
Trying to install a PAC-15 ipod adapter into my 2003 Limited. I've got the 10 speaker JBL system, with indash 6cd and rear seat audio. No Nav or cd changer.
