Strange noise coming from the back of my GX
The other morning I went out to the garage and heard a strange noise coming from the rear (underneath the 3rd row seating/storage area) of my GX460. It sounded like a pump or something running continuously. I was in the garage for 10 minutes and the noise had started before I entered the garage and continued after I left. When I went back out to the garage 3-4 hours later it had stopped so I am not certain how long it was running for. I previously owned a 2006 GX470 with the rear air suspension and this was not the sound that was coming from my new GX. The car had not been running or driven in over 8 hours and I am at a loss as to what it could be. I figured I would check here first before delving into the 700+ page owners manual to troubleshoot.
Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There is a note about this noise in the owners manual but I do not recall the details except that it said something about a noise may be heard from the rear of the vehicle a few hours after the car has been driven and that it was normal. I have only heard it once probably 3-4 hours after it was driven.

Thanks for this, I have encountered this twice in the morning (in the span of about a week) when I am going out to the car to leave for the day. I was concerned it was something that had been running all night and a possible drain on the battery. I'm going to keep an eye ( . . . ear) on this and see what happens, but this post will help me sleep better-- KH
