    Hello I have a 2018 sport4x4 and recently I noticed one day after work that a little motor sound comming from behind my rear driver tire. I looked under the truck and it seemed to be comming from the fuel tank. And this was hours after the truck was on. Thanks

    Yup that’s normal, it has to do with the fuel system.

    Not really sure myself, but could it be the fuel pump keeping pressure?

    Waiting for the experts to reply.

    It’s completely normal. You can find an explanation in your manual

    It's the evap system running leak checks, and, or other system tests/maintenance.. perfectly normal.. although should stop after 5-15 minutes.. use battery load tester to check
