Squeeky air intake - just me or what??

Here is an odd one...my 2002 LX coupe had an annoying squeek/rattle between 24-3000 rpm...been to the dealer 5 times. They actually glued in a foam pad behind my fuse box, thinking that the box was rattling and it did help a bit. But it came back. After a two hour ride in squeek hell, I started probing and found that the air intake between battery and fusebox is the source...my brother put a wadded up paper towelunder it and it hasn't returned. Did I just get the really messed up one or have others experienced this one?

have the dealer check your vin #. there is a small presentage of civics for 2001 that had recalls on the air box intake. in the least have them repair it under warrenty.
