A/C is making a "whooooo" sound when I turn the car off on hot days.
We are finally getting some heat here in the Seattle area and I have noticed that on really hot days when I turn my TT off I get this "whoooo" kind of howling noise for about 5 or 6 seconds. Sounds like its coming from the area near the A/C unit. I usually have it set to about 68 or so. Also when I first start my car up, the vents kick in and I get a strange smell kind of like damp sleeping bag or something.. kind of hard to explain, but its only on really hot days when I use A/C. Should I be worried? Car is out of warranty.

I have noticed the same noice when turning the car off on really hot days...
I have also noticed a slight rattle noise coming from the engine when the AC is on. I think JazziTT had this noise before.

The two are likely not related. The damp smell is likely mildew in your vents and that's a bitch.
It's very difficult to get rid of and will likely have to be handled professionally unless you inclined to do something like that.
On the other hand, the "whoooo" is likely a manifestation from the spirit world taken up residence in your car. You'll also need a professional for that....an excorcist that is.
Hopefully it's not the blower fan bearings going up....
