Hi All,
Even by Croma standards this is a good one!
For exactly 37 seconds after I start the engine a sound that can only be described as a rat-tat-tat comes from inside the dashboard somewhere.
It only started today and happens for 37 seconds every time I've turned on the engine today.
It doesn't happen until I start the engine, (e.g. doesn't happen when I've only got the dashboard lit up), it happens in neutral, first or reverse and irrespective of whether the fan blower is on or off.
And then stops after exactly 37 seconds. Every time. Whether it's idling, going forwards or backwards. Then it stops. Everything seems to work as normal.
There doesn't seem to be any problem with the gearbox, climate control or radio and nothing's fallen inside, at least not recently. The car handles as well as it ever does and there are no warnings on the dash and no fault codes reported.
Has anyone had anything like this before?
