ksc350z Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Hi all, Wondering if anyone could give me any help on what this whining like noise could be... It's happened a few times now and seems to do it when entering the car first thing and goes after a few minutes. Thank you all kindly for any input. 👠https://vimeo.com/146538274 Quote
Ebized Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 aliens Sorry, not heard that kinda noise before. Is there an aftermarket alarm fitted that is triggering that? - just guessing 1 Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Sounds like a fuel pump, but has nothing to do with ignition by the looks of things Quote
BulletMagnet Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 That's too loud for the fuel pump, plus ignition isn't on for it to pump. Sounds like somebody has a Hoover/Dyson on and cleaning the floormats 1 Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) Do you have std Bose/nissan audio, not a cd trying to load is it? Edited November 22, 2015 by Jetpilot Quote
ksc350z Posted November 22, 2015 Author Posted November 22, 2015 Do you have std Bose/nissan audio, not a cd trying to load is it? I got an aftermarket stereo - no cd/DVD in it at the moment so don't think it'll be that. If it is the fuel pump is this a biggie anyone know? Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 It wont be as mentioned, only if the ignition was on, just sounded like a pump of sorts. Quote
Kraziekatz1 Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Let me get this right, you unlock the door and open the door and get that noise.....before you put the key in ignition or press anything? That must rule out most things! Can you hear it before you open the door? Quote
ZMANALEX Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Is your car a 350Z Coupe JDM import ? Quote
ekallus Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Sounds like an electric seat motor... Quote

Kraziekatz1 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Does the jdm import come with memory seat option? Quote
ekallus Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Does the jdm import come with memory seat option? I can see we're thinking in the same direction... Quote
veilside z Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Can you disconnect the power to the seat to eleviate the seat? Quote
ekallus Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Any word from the OP? I'm intrigued by this... Quote
Ebized Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Any word from the OP? I'm intrigued by this... Probably found it was an ejector seat and hasn't landed yet 1 Quote
Payco Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Trying getting in the car before your Mrs.I find the whining stops if she gets in second ! Quote
Dicky Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Could it be something to do with the alarm disarming. Whey not get out, shut the door again (don't lock it) wait a while, then get in again without the alarms deactivating and see what happens? Maybe it's the door lock motor or window motor humming following activation. After that I would look try isolating the noise by removing fuses in turn for each possibility you can think of and see if it disappears Quote
Ricey Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Last time I heard a noise like that it was the power steering motor shorting out on a mini but that never quit. It just kept going and going until the battery flatted out. To me it sounds like an electrical motor Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote
