Heater Humming.

Guys,
I am not sure if this is an issue or not.
When the heater is turned on, there is 'humming' sound from the driver's side. I brought it to the service, and the technician told me it is normal for some cayennes. "I think it is BS". But who knows?
The sound is irritating

Thanks all.

Deetz,
Thanks for your reply.
How is it normal when yours doesn't and mine does?

Because I never turn on the heater! LOL I love the cold weather!!! I've been in some Cayennes and all of them do that, there is a way to fix it. Turn the music loud!!

rockitman has a reputation beyond repute

The hum is normal and unfortunate. Some cars are worse than others in terms of hummm level. My old CS was loud, imo...my turbo is much quiter though and doesn't really bother me.
