weird noise from trunk in 2006 S55

When i pop my trunk I hear something sounding like a small electric motor,it lasts for about 10-20 seconds and then it stops! Nothing is on in the car,so what could this be!

Oh, OK then it may be the air pump making noise...I dont think I would worry too much about that unless you begin having battery discharge problems.

I have it too, for the past 5 years. Causes no problems with the battery and you can only really hear it with the car not running. I've stopped worrying.

The S class does not have an air pump for the suspension, as we have ABC hydraulic system. Mine makes a winding noise when it closes and sucks down but I have the auto-open and close motor.
