Cooling fan was running after I shut the car off yesterday. Wasn't that hott outside and wasn't really running the car that hard. First time it's done that all summer.

Default I think the turbo coolant pump always runs for awhile after your turn the engine off

Another good thing to do is to let the car idle for a couple of minutes before you turn it off and I always try not to do any hard turbo driving for 5 min before a shut it off. Others on the forum have talked about how important it is to let the turbo cool down (for longevity of the components that is).

It runs even if you just turn the car on and back off without starting the engine.
