Very Funny Noise, Need Help
Well the first two months of ownership have been a blast, my wife and I love driving the truck I always wanted and she gets to drive to work (ha ha ha). We have our first Land Rover "quirk" in the form of a very strange noise. The noise can best be described as a windshieldwiper going across a dry windshield, that is not the case, itskind of whistle but not really, very whiney, I hope this makes sense.The noise seems to be coming from the rear of thetruck and happens at all different times there is no way to reproduce it, but to be in thetruck when it happens. The truck is at the dealership now and they called to tell me its just the big safari rack whistling, I said no thats impossible as I have heared it while the car was at a stop, and if it was the rack it would be constant at speed (plus the rack IS noisey at high speeds). They are going to keep it longer and try to reproduce the sound but the rep left me uncertain of any resolve. The car was bought CPO so this is warrentied.
Has anyone had a noise like this, any ideas? Thank you in advance, as I have said forums like this really help more than anything when it comes to keeping owners loyal and happy, we all really can help each other, I really apriciate it.

RE: Very Funny Noise, Need Help
well we've returned from the dealership with no answer, they could not duplicate the noise, figures. We are taking it back bext week as the passenger side seat heater is not working and they are going to fix that under warrenty, I could care less but my wife likes her butt warm when I drive, and before anyone says but you live in Florida, we go to North Carolina and Virginia quite a bit.
Also rather then post a second thread, when the dealership dropped off the car (nice service feature) and picked up their loaner LR3 (not my kind of truck btw) they left the service papers in the car, and just gave my wife the keys, no conversation or anything. When I got home from work a little while ago I was reading over it and they hae marked the fluids level box and state imediate action must be taken, not having been told anything I called them up to see what was wrong and why they gave me the truck back if there was a problem, they state the transfer box is leaking and they have ordered parts, they just forgot to mention this to me, I have not seen fresh oil in the driveway but I have many stains from workign on my BMW's and out old Land Cruiser so I wouldnt notice them anyway. Are we ok to drive the truck, the dealership say its fine but I dont believe what they tell me? I know about the silicone gaskets so ok, thats fien they will fix it via warrenty but other then that any ideas? Thanks again guys.
