Default has anyone else heard a noise from behind the MMI Screen?

I'm just wondering if anyone else has heard any sound from the dash near the MMI Screen. Nothing major - and the only way I can describe it is to say it sounds like the CD is trying to load a disc, just not that loud. It's not a constant sound either. Just curious if anyone had ideas. if not I'll just waitfor the 5,000 mile service.

I hear something particularly just after I start engine. It is much more audible from the passenger seat. I noticed it during the overview of the systems by the salesman, he had never heard it before.

We get two:
1 - sort of like a low pitched clicking or tapping noise. Wondering if it is baffles in the HVAC - seems to hapenn at start up when the AC gets going

2- a very high pitched whine right behind the instruments - while starting out.

Default SdeMW

The noise I get is mroe the low pitch tapping you're describing - I'll play around see if I hear it just when the a/c is going. Thanks

I get the tapping sound like the A/C unit baffels are moving around after startup.

Default Air flaps move with little servo sounds and clicking

it is not specific to aircon as we are below temp now and heating required but car behaves the same at startup.

Ok - I feel better knowing it isn't a "problem"
Thank you to everyone for the info.

Mess with your air settings after a bit and it starts again
