Gurgling Sounds Accelerating 2004 Grand Cherokee Ltd.
I have a 2004 grand cherokee. Every time I accelerate from a stop I hear a gurgling sound, like water or like plastic banging around, from somewhere below the dash toward the middle right. Any clue what this could be, any easy checks or fixes?

We had the wife's '04 GC at the dealer for service, and told the write-up man of our identical problem. They fixed it! It was the HVAC drain/sweat line that was plugged, letting condensation puddle up in the HVAC box. Look in the engine compartment on pass. side, you might see it. Might have to go underneath. Looks like a 1" rubber tube kinda' flattened out on the end. Take a piece of wire or similar and clean it out. That little repair cost me the $100 deductible! Have a beer on me Tried it on my '97 GC but the drain is INSIDE the framerail!!!
