Brian Rowe Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 On Wednesday I purchased a 2014 MKZ Hybrid with 19,800 miles on it. Friday while driving a sound/noise started every 2 minutes. I've attached a wav file that has the sound late in the recording. Anyone know what this might be? Thank you! mkz sound.wav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2D2 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I have a 14 MKZ hybrid for about 7 months now and can't recall ever hearing that sound or anything close to it. Do you have anything working as a music source? memory stick, ipod, phone? Is it possible that it is your phone trying to use the Bluetooth connection? If it is happening regularly (every 2 minutes) then it might be a reminder tone for something. Check under your MKZ settings for your phone/text as to what the audio notification sounds are, maybe it is a message tone or something like that that you accidently set.

PatriotSunset Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Haven't heard that one. Will listen for anything that might make that sound. I think R2D2 made some great suggestions. Check all the connectors in the center console. Is your Navigation card plugged in properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tucker Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 That one is new to me, can you take it in for a checkup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackPano Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I have to agree with R2D2, that sounds like something connecting or trying to connect if it is every 2 mins on the button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Rowe Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 None of you got it right :) Turns out there was a black pre-paid cell phone under the driver's seat near the track that was either left there by a technician or the previous owner. 4 people including me missed it. The battery was going out which is why it was making the noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
