Re: [ST] Ugly noise when cold

["Ari Haapaniemi" <hapsu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

spring in Finland has been abnormally cold (mornings 0....5 C degrees) and I'm also getting to be pissed off cause of the noise coming probably from the relay of the fuel pump (as the dealer explained to me). The noise is there, if temp is < 5...8 C degrees and disappears after that. Same thing with louder noise while ignition and the temp range is s-thing of the same.

Dealer has in stock new relays, I keep you posted after changing it.

May the torque be with you,
