(2013 L494 5.0 SC) I'm not usually sat in the car when it's parked but several times during the last fortnight, whilst waiting for my other half to do some shopping, I noticed some strange noises coming from somewhere behind the driver's seat, to the right and low down, though I can't narrow the location down precisely.

The power management system turns systems off in order and after various periods of time. Leave a car parked for a day or two and it takes a while (age) for everything to get running again. Leave if parked for a minute and all is working instantaneously. |

I'm familiar with the power management system as JLR used it on the XK and XFR I owned prior to the RRS and don't think it's anything to do with the 'normal' operation of this, although it does stop when the main shut-down occurs around 30 minutes after the ignition has been turned off. Going by the sound, the guilty relay is either inside the offside rear door, or in the sill below it. The fact that the light on the armrest indicating 'locked' flashes in harmony with the four clicks is what makes me think it may be related to the key-less locking system.

Some feedback on this issue. Traced the sound to behind the panel in the luggage area where the fuse box is. I was going to remove the trim panel and lie in the back to see if I could identify the actual relay, but circumstances (three broken and one dislocated rib) have prevented this- I couldn't even remove the trim panel, let alone lie down!
