Rumbling noise
« on: 28 February 2010, 18:47:45 »

Hello all you experts,
My 3 litre Elite (which I bought for £350 and am therefore delighted with) gives out a disconcertingly powerful rythmic rumbling noise, lasting a few seconds, about ten seconds after the ignition has been switched on. I can't for the life of me think what it could be about. Should I be worried?

That would be the self levelling air pump  :y

...or perhaps the secondary air-injection pump. ;)

Many thanks. It seems to be happening more frequently recently. Does that indicate a leak?
