Just got a 2013 sts and I’m hearing a whining noise, took off the left plastic and disconnected what looked like the mass airflow sensor and it stopped. Turned the key to the on position and it started making noise again. Is this normal or is something causing it to somehow have power to it constantly?
Hi Demar, welcome to the wonderful world of Spyders, SpyderLovers, and the Miles of Smiles you have to look forward to! :thumbup:
That whining noise after you shut down is normal and is meant to be there! It can last for 30-40 minutes after shut-down; it's actually a servo holding the butterfly closed in the air intake. I believe it was extended out to last that long after a few Spyders had 'engine run-on' &/or burning issues - as in, call the fire brigade type burning issues! So you REALLY DO want it to be making that noise! :shocked:
:welcome: & :congrats:
Let the smiles, and miles begin! Also, let the farkles begin!

Thanks
