Intercooler fan?

Post by jamesk »

Hi all,

i own a 2001 td5 and a couple of times lately, after i have turned off the car, the intercooler fan(i assume there is one, its not the radiator fan) keeps running. When i put the keys back in and turn the ignition to Stage 2 it stops. Is this normal? i cant imagine it would cause any problems, as long as i make sure i turn it off. If its not that, the noise is definitely coming from the front of the radiator, down low. Any info would be great!

cheers

It will be the a/c fan, intercooler doesnt have one. Or you may be hearing the oil filter spinning down ?

Yeah definitely is the a/c fan, happened again and i let it run for a while to see if it turned itself off but after 5 minutes it hadnt. I'm not sure why it does it, as I hadnt even had the a/c on at all. Like I said, its turns off once i turn the ignition over so it doesn't bother me, but I am curious as to why it happens every now and then. Thanks for the reply.
