Mine come on at exactly 2,500 RPM. I noticed in another thread that somebody else was having their "sympathy" Buzzes at 4,000. How about the rest of you...any special rev range for your "buzzes"?

mikehome1 · Apr 22nd, 2003, 07:57 AM

About 3000 rpm's

Appear? You mean your's go away?

And, don't attach anything to the antenna or you'll really hear some buzz'n

I'd say about 2000 rpms, I can hear a slight rattle coming from the glovebox area... kinda annoying, but I just put the music up.

i have some that sound like they are coming from around the reflectors in the door. If i cram my elbow back there it seems to stop for the moment. there's another somewhere in the boot. i can't reach that far back. there was another on the sunroof screen. it stopped all by it self. it seems to only happen when you have a new rider with you.

Maybe its like a dog that sniffs a new person, the Mini just buzzes...

At about 2500rpm's it sounds like my dash is about to fall apart.

I find my buzzes come in at about 3750 which coincidently is when my Works suddenley starts roaring from the induction kit.

I've got a really annoying buzz from the dash somewhere but I think I tracked it down today to the Multimeter I forgot I stored under the steering wheel (D'oh!)

I also get one from the surround on my stereo (non standard) gonna have to stick that down with something.

I have found it's normally a losing battle with rattles anyway, as I found with my old Mini. Once you get one sorted, you'll find another somewhere else you never noticed before!

Buzzes start between 1-6750 rpm
