    Hello fellows,

    Does anyone know what is the meaning of that long beep(fuel injection noise?)upon door opening on F430s???
    It happens every time I open the door... and the buzz seems to be coming from the engine.

    Thank you!

    It's the F1 pump noise pressuring up and anticipating you to start you engine. I think...
    IMO a very nice sound...wish it was louder hehe

    Only works when you open the drivers door. Expects you to start the car and drive. Do not disappoint it or else. :cool:

    It's the f1 pump but I usually say "it's just preparing for take off" if anybody ask. Lolq

    If it's a beep that comes after you've driven the car and its an F1, it will either come or go depending on whether or not you are leaving it in gear before shutting it off.

    My manual shift F430 doesn't beep, consistent with it being an F1 pump.
