Failed fan then. Motor stuck, but humming from the current flow.

Default The car is posing a question.."Humm, are we already done?
meaning...Hmmm, why did he turn my engine off? I was just beginning to like where we were going.

I believe you Kareem, but what's the diff between a turbo timer and an after-run coolant pump?

Man do I love the sound of the turbo spinning down at shut down. Couldn't hear it in my Passat.
