Gurgling noise from behind the dashvoard

[Saxonbaroness]

Hi. There seems to be a strange gurgling/bubbling noise coming from behind the dashboard of my 2.7d s type. Any thoughts??

That would be the coffee maker. It was an optional extra on S types from 2006 onwards.

There is a switch inside the glove box to switch on and off.

Ok.  Very good 😁 But seriously, any thoughts?

Hi Mark,

No uncommon and I have the same noise occasionally.  We have the same model and the same year.

It is simply the gurgle of water from the air conditioning system returning to its place in the system.

It has never caused me a problem and I have had my s type for 6 years.

Regards,

Peter.

My 2003 4.2 litre does the same and I'm the original owner and have never had any problems due to the sound in 16 years.
