JONNOS 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 When i turn the keys the engine starts ok but there is a funny noise for a bout 2 seconds sounding like a grinding noise. The comp displays 1001 flashing and then disappears to show mileage. Is this a problem?tks Link to post Share on other sites
SankysVR6 1 Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 the display is the service reminder. Not sure about the grinding noise do you know which area it might be comming from Link to post Share on other sites
JONNOS 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 think front left of the engine bay as you sit in the car Link to post Share on other sites

jimbob 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 does it do it with out the engine started and just the ignition on? Later models have a auxilary electric water pump, could it be this? Link to post Share on other sites
JONNOS 0 Posted June 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 it only does it when starting from cold, and only when the engine has just started. if the car has been warmed up, it does it less or barely at all Link to post Share on other sites
