Lexus: Odd Noise

    Odd Noise

    SWMBO drives a 2001 RX-300. I had to take it to work recently, and heard
    the strangest sound coming from the passenger side dash at the floor. With
    the ignition in the start position, engine running or not, a sound much like
    a loud hard drive being accessed repeatedly is heard at the passengers left
    foot. It sounds like a small servo operating an in irregular interval, but
    it doesn't stop until the ignition is turned off. I thought it was the CD
    changer, but that's not it. What system is located in this area that could
    be making this sound? We'll take it to the dealer in the next few days, and
    I'll report their findings. In the mean time, anyone care to guess?
    TIA.

    Maybe an air door (for climate control system) or its servomotor.

    Someday someone is going to conduct a study of sociopathic behavior among
    people who regularly post to newsgroups. Someone asks a simple question,
    and almost invariably someone out there takes that as an opportunity to make
    a derogatory, often times sexually oriented comment. Newsgroups seem to
    attract a significant population of demented individuals looking for an
    outlet for their sexual frustration, their societal hatred, their paranoia,
    or perhaps their intolerable loneliness and emptiness. These sad
    individuals seem to thrive on pathetic attempts to anonymously lash out at
    others. What pleasure or joy can be had in these impotent attempts at
    garnering attention for one's self? It boggles the mind. It makes me feel
    truly sorry for people who are unable to engage in meaningful conversation,
    and can only contribute with expletives and sexual innuendo. "Mad Fan", I'm
    sorry that your life has not offered you opportunites to find true meaning.

    Newsgroup behavior is, indeed fertile ground for psychological /
    sociological studies. Anyone working on a thesis out there? Here's your
    field of study!

    The noise, by the way, turned out to be the damper servo motor going bad.
