Buzzing noise on start up.

Guys, I have only just noticed this and was wondering if it is anything to concern me.

Basically when I start up at anytime I have noticed that the suspension makes a farting noise and this is followed by what I assume to be the compressor buzzing for about 25 seconds. I have read thro various posts and cannot find anything similar. Any ideas?

This sounds normal ..though how loud the compressor is seems to vary

Yep - that's the compressor charging up the tank. It freaked me out at first, until I realized what it was.

Yup... although my compressor is usually on for more than 20 seconds.

It's also one of the "new design" ones, after the old ones kept crapping out every couple of months.
