Strange sound...need help to identify why??
I have a weird sound coming from if I had to guess the front axle near the front brakes. I was cleaning my rims and noticed it. At first it would make a noise every 20 sec or so but it varies. Sometimes faster and I am unable to figure it out. I don't remember hearing it before until today. If I had to describe the sound it resembles the sound of the seats moving. It's not very loud but it is noticeable. Has anyone experienced this?

yes.. If I move the car or open the trunk, it makes a 1 second hum/buzz noise, like the seats are moving. I have yet to figure out what it is though. It's pretty replicatable though.

Fuel pump pressurizing the fuel system so the car starts as soon as you press the start button

Thanks for the information. I was kind of concerned since it kept going for nearly 10 min or so. It finally stopped. I figured it was harmless but was not sure since this was the first time I experienced it. Thanks again.
