find it, add a series resistor in 1 of the 2 leads, the higher the resistance the quieter.

the bloody things spend more time in reverse than going forward".

Much like the dust cart that services commercial properties around my
way and reverses into the street at 5am/6am every couple of days.

Yes if you are lucky it will be a piezo electric one so you don't even need
a high wattage restor. If its something else,either electro mechanical or a
