    The clock and radio will stay on when the car is turned off and key is removed until the driver door is opened. Hope this helps a bit.

    Default Thanks

    Thanks that does help,

    But when the door is opened it doesnt shut off so im guessing a slight electrical hiccup with a cut of switch or something?

    any other advice on these points please?


    cheers thou!!

    The noise you refer to is possibly an air vent or door in the air con being activated by vacuum when the engine starts and stops. Not sure that it should do that, but if the air con works correctly, why worry?

    check the switch in the door jam and see if it is stuck on or it may be stuffed
    cheers GM
