Hi Guys,

my Dads 2012 3.0 v6 makes a sparking sound from under the left hand rear boot area when unlocked after being unused for few days.
At first i thought it was the air suspension but it definitely sounds like spark, its quite loud almost like tapping two jumper leads together when connected to a battery.

Thanks for your help

Likely to be the corner valves clicking in the air suspension rear valve block as the air suspension adjusts its levels, having been awakened by the unlocking. The valve block is located directly inwards from the top of the left wheel. The clicking can be quite loud.

I will check that out, my Dads heading down south soon for a holiday so just want to make sure all ok.
