i dont think so as it sounds electrical like a buzzer for when the lights are left on or something....if it does it again ill try to record the noise...whatever it is its behind the dash on the drivers side "RANGEISM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED"

It could be the air temp sensor motor in the dash |

a bit like a whistle ? Like a little soccer referee is sitting in the dash? Itīs the PC fan at the bottom of the black box in the engine compartment. If you unbolt the lid of the box you will see the capsuled air fan at the bottom. Donīt spray WD40 into the little hole, better use Teflon or Siliconespray. It will help for the next month until it will be colder weather again... XJC, RRV8, Series1 86 and 107% of real pleasure |
