My newly received Black Diamond is doing this and I can't figure out what it is.
For reference a Black Diamond, 2.3L, Manual Trans, Squach.
The most predictable time it occurs is when I do this.
-Vehicle parked and locked and been sitting some time (not sure how long, but 20 min or longer seems enough)
-I unlock with the keypad on the door.
-I open the door.
I then hear something running for 5 seconds-ish that I can best describe as sounding like when you turn on a printer and you hear the print head move to the end of its travel then back except this has metallic sound to it. It seems to come from underneath the front of the vehicle. It sounds like something moves one way then back.
I can close lock the door and open again but it won't repeat unless I go away for some time.
I am sure it happens at other times, but the sequence above is most predictable. Most of the other times I hear it is after driving when I park it, get out, then lock the door.
Because I can't just make it happen repeatedly I can't find the source.
I think it has something to do with the Black Diamond package, Manual Trans or Squach package since my Bronco Base which is non-squach auto trans does not make the sound. I don't think it is something wrong, just a sound I've never heard from a car.
