The motor immediately became quiet.

It is now the end of Feb and the blower is still perfectly silent. Cheap and easy fix so far.
Thanks I will give that a shot. Don't think I have owned a Japanese built car yet that the blower didn't start to make noise. Most were a bitch to get to to try to lube and I never thought to go through the cabin filter space. Makes it easy enough to actually do.
