Since it happens when your AC is on, it's probably your AC compressor when it kicks in.

Again I'd say it's normal, my 02 did it, my 03 does it. I had the dealer look at it on my 02 & couldn't find anything wrong. Seems the CLS has ALOT of little quarks that seems to a problem, but aren't.

No, Listen.

This is a new noise. I know this car better than my woman. The car is off. Fan motor only is on. Low frequency resonance varies with RPM , but is seperate noise in different area and different pitch than motor.

My woman even said. "What the hell is that, it sounds like a jet engine starting....."
