Paul11 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Hi Everyone, As a new owner of a RR I have now joined your forum. I am still fining my way around the new car and have a query. When I park up after being out in the car, with the engine off, I've noticed a clicking sound from under the bonnet followed by what sounds like a high pitched tone. The clicking sounds like a gear trying to engage or disengage. It lasts for a few seconds after the engine is turned off and key removed,followed by the tone which goes on for about a minute. The car is the sport version 3.6 Tdv8. Should I be concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you have air suspension? the tone could be associated with this if it sounds like air escaping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul11 Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 Thanks Pete. Yes it does have air suspension so that sorts out the clicking noise. The tone sound is very much that. It doesn't sound like air to me, more like something to do with the alarm counting down before it sets. This goes on for about 1minute then there's a click and it goes off. Maybe it is the alarm setting period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJIbex Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 All sounds very normal - don't worry about it. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
