Noise when key is in "ON" position
All,
I have a very loud noise (like a fan) but more whirring from under the hood when the car key is in the "ON" position.
I could not locate the source, but the air filter box is vibrating a bit. The radiator fan is not turning and no belts seem to be moving.
The HVAC is off (when I turn that on, it makes a different, very loud noise).
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

My understanding is that the intercooler pump on an XKR turns on with just the key on, no need to run the engine. It is reputedly located under the air box, so more than likely your source of noise.
If it is that loud, I would check it out in case it is moving some air mixed in the water, or the pump is on its way out. There are supposedly cheaper replacements.
