mbrickell Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 When I open the door and get in, I hear: CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK Like a clicking on/off from the rear area, cargo bay somewhere, with random intervals. It might do it 5-6 times or so. Trying to think what would cycle like this without a predictable interval... I should specify. Happens before I have even put the key in.

[HTi]Johnson Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 struts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrickell Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 struts? Sounds a lot like an electrical item to me... the only other thing I could think of is something sloshing in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLCraig Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Dose it have air struts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky nighteyes Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 maybe a relay gone beserk? notice any tail light issues? blinkers etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrickell Posted March 4, 2006 Author Share Posted March 4, 2006 Dose it have air struts? no air suspension, a basic Loyale wagon 2wd stick shift, crank windows, no cruise... all electrical items work fine except the driver side motorized seat belt which is permanently in the back position. clicking noise not from there, though.

FlyB0y Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Just take that marble out of the rear cargo compartment would ya? j/k! I wonder if it could be the in-tank fuel pump? just taking a total shot in the dark ... I understand that some fuel preasure is retained there for a few days of sitting even ... just a guess tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellets Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I think I would start by disconnecting neg bat lead from post. Then see if noise is gone. If gone electrical. Have to start searching for that. If nor mechanical and you need a helper to help locate noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 ...Good Idea, and then go down your car, to the Fuel Pump and hear if there is still sounds coming out from there, maybe a fuel filter hose, air in the system, etc... give us feedback, I got more ideas... Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuclearBacon Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 i put my money on the fuel pump, if you connect the green test connectors, does it make the same sound? *engine off* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrickell Posted March 6, 2006 Author Share Posted March 6, 2006 i put my money on the fuel pump, if you connect the green test connectors, does it make the same sound? *engine off* I'll try that in a few days when I get a chance. Too much rain ( actually welcome so dry here ) to do much outside lately...thanks for the replies, all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cf_anderson Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I agree with fuel pump. I have a Loyale and it is located in the rear of the vehicle. Have an assistant turn on the car while you investigate in the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
