F6 Fans

[CJF077]

I drove the F6 to my cousins house today, and when I pulled up and turned the car off noticed the sound like an air conditioner coming from the bonnet, some cooling fans or something.. (im not car technical so not sure what).. never noticed this before in the typhoon or the xr6 turbo.. it lasted for around the 5 minute mark and then turned off.. any ideas?

Mine does it too sometimes. Did you have your A/C on?

[CJF077]

Nope..

[Grudgee]

Did you run over an air conditioning unit, that flicked up under your guard?

[Chich]

that has to be what it is....

[Guest]

Nope..

huh? you didn't have a/c on?

I never ever turn a/c off. hot, cold or indifferent, widows down etc. just change the temp to suit.

conditioned air is so much better the "fresh" air

p.s only just ordered the f6 so I'll let you know when I get it, might be a while though.

Could it be thermal fans?

I've had a few cars that switch their fans at random times after I've stopped.

is it not an FG version of the turbo oil pump or whatever - the BA F6 turbo winds down pretty slowly and gurgles a lot, maybe something simlar?

I think it was the thermal fans... lol no air conditioning run over haha

yeah its fail-safe cooling Chris, the car is just running the fans to cool the car down once you've stopped - nothing to worry about!
