Stormy_VR 10 Posted November 27, 2018 Hi all. Hope I’ve posted this in the right place, apologies if not (noob!!) Driving the rado today and noticed a loud ‘buzzing’ type noise coming from the lhr side, seemingly behind the interior side panel!! Was happening intermittently, whether I was driving along or at a standstill!! Haven’t stripped down as of yet so just thought I’d ask the question whether anyone has had this noise before and what it possibly is/ any ideas of any modules etc located in that area??

fendervg 32 Posted November 27, 2018 Central locking or electric window control module would be two suspects... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted November 27, 2018 Did you have heated seat on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarkR 11 Posted November 27, 2018 Sounds like the heater seat relay. Most likely a faulty element in the seat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormy_VR 10 Posted November 28, 2018 Did you have heated seat on? Yes I did, both of them. Drove car to work today but no noises appeared! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delfinis38 1 Posted November 28, 2018 It's normally the elements have broken in the seat... the relays for the seats are quite rare go find if you have a problem with them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome, thanks for the advice, looks like the seat will be coming out soon then! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
