    Wife's car

    Hi all,

    My wife's car (focus c-max) has intermittently developed a high pitched noise coming from what appears to be the glove box.
    I have yet to be there in person when it happens but she has phoned me when it has and it sounds like white noise. (So no she isn't going doolally )

    I've phoned the ford garage and they've never heard of this before.

    Any ideas????

    Cheers
    Dave

    Does the pitch change with the engine speed?

        She says no, it was just one constant high piercing sound.

          just a thought, could it be the brakes??.....when the disk needs changing there is a "yogi" burr on the outside diameter and sometimes rubs and makes that horrible noise...just a thought......

          good luck

            More info from the misses.

            Sounded like a single high pitch tone alarm, didn't change whether she had the engine running/off, stereo on/off, driving, central locking on/off.......
