leode 0 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) Hi fellow members, I have a IS 250 2014 and there is some weird sound coming out of the dash/radio I guess - quite annoying, I must admit. I don't know how to described it so I uploaded a video with the hope you can help me out with this. There are basically two perceived sounds in this video: the first is the electric seat moving towards the easy entry/exit mode so just ignore it. The second one is what I'm trying to figure out. Starts at 00:03 up to 00:04. It is unrelated to the seat since it also intermittently happening when seat is not moving. Ideas? Cheers, Leo Edited November 29, 2020 by leode mention exactly time span of noise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scudney 307 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I might be mistaken but I think it has something to do with the vents shutting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would you have by chance the invoice of the repair? I'm interested on parts you need for this.. Cheers, Leo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
route66 48 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Mine does that too! Never saw it as a problem though; in my case, I just categorised it as "one of those sounds that modern cars make getting their gubbins aligned". My car is well out of warranty, so I guess I'll just have to continue enjoying it. Does anyone know if this causes a problem (other than acoustic)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wharfhouse 220 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Mine does it too - 64 reg with 94k miles - been doing it since I got it second hand 4 years ago with 40k miles on it. Always thought it was just a noise it made shutting everything down so haven't worried about it as it hasn't caused a problem (I have extended warranty though if it ever does}.

paulrnx 359 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 The trouble with forums like this is that we all imagine we’re suffering from problems reported on the forum 😀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
