Every few miles i can hear what sounds like a pump or fan from behind the passenger side of the dashboard. Its very subtle most the time and every now and then a little louder. I drove a 1.3MJ panda for 11 days and a 1.2 pop for 3 days as courtesy cars and they made the same sound. My dealer said its the ABS autocheck. Ive searched google but can't find anything on there.

Does anybody else have the same sound? Or know what it definitely is?:confused:

I think your dealer is most probably correct.

Try this link: http://autorepair.about.com/od/glossary/a/def_ABS.htm

and scroll down to item 12.
 
Thanks for the reply. It must be that then. The sound is on for more like 3 seconds and i do notice it more while changing speeds in traffic.
