AIR BOX HUMMING Noise?? Fan noise after car turned off!
98 2.8L V6 Manual Quattro car:
ok so it was verycold this morning , about -10 C. I'm driving to work and I'm almost there and I hear this sort of humming 'noisy' fan noise from front of car. "what could this be?"
Anyways I turn off car and its still on!
I open hood and check, its not the Rad fans, but it is coming from under the airbox! the airbox is lightly vibrating while this humming noise continues.
So after about 3-4 minutes its still going strong. I start up the car to back it into spot (in case I will have to tow it if battery is dead). Turn off car, and humming sort of fizzles out and stops! Thankfully
Now - What the hell was that? and how do I fix it? I dont want my battery running down on me!
Thanks!

my car does this all the time but I always assumed that it was because it is really REALLY hot in the summer where i live. Mine usually stops after 10 minutes tops though.
I dont know what it is or how to fix it, other than start up your car and turn it off again. It should stop after that. Its a little bit of trouble but its easier than having to be jumped or paying a few hundred to get it fixed.
