Swiching Noise Upon start up |
|
Hi Guys,
So last friday we purchased a 2011 D4 HSE direct from Landrover - its done approx 48000 miles and was serviced, MOT'd and subjected to a LR 168 point check before coming to us.
Twice upon start up I have heard a swishing noise from under the bonnet - it lasts about a miunte and then goes - is this normal for a D4
I have a years LR warranty so any required work is on there dime but if it needs looking at I would rather do that asap!
Just upgraded from a D3 that I had for 12 years and 168000 miles so "Boris" is a very different place to be - overall drives fine but had an insignia a few years back that made a smilar sound which turned out to be the waterpump on the way out and given I tow a lot I need to be able to trust that its not going to break down on me!!!

Sounds like the viscous fan running though maybe its more of a roar than a swish? Would have thought your 3 done it too. Maybe worth uploading a recording otherwise its lucky guess time!
