Lanceevox 0 Posted December 14, 2005 I bought my 92 corrado vr6 about a weeks and a half ago and just the other day I heard this wierd mechanical sound. It sounded like a little machine winding up or like a UFO taking off and landing. Is this common? It sounds like somthing rotary powered, like a spinning sound. I have only heard it when I was driving the car but it could be going on when just the key is in and the engine is off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dec 1 Posted December 15, 2005 Depends on where the noise is coming from really! If its happening when you turn the ignition key to position 2 but don't start the engine, it could be the fuel pump priming. In that case the noise would be coming from the rear of the car.

White2505 0 Posted December 16, 2005 electric locking fuel flap unlocking sounds much like this, is on the rear driver side over here so would be passenger side in the US I would guess Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
