    Does this happen to anyone else?

    When I leave the key in and turn it so that everything turns on, but not the car. After a while the central locking pump will randomly go off, but the doors do not lock or unlock.
    It will do something maybe three times in a row, then wait a while with nothing, then do it again.
    Is that normal?
    Can anyone replicate it?
    Not really a problem, just wondering if it might be my keyless entry module picking up noise and being set off.

    Might be your ignition switch, does the key require some jiggling to work ?
    Those clicks behind the dash are relays for the vacuum pump under the front quarter panel, but if the pressure is dropping (via say a vacuum leak) might be causing it. If you open the door does it continue (key still in)?
