Hi all,

Does anyone noticed or heard a very soft sound from the engine bay after the engine is off and the fan also off?

Went home from about 20 minutes drive, parked the car, locked the car, the fan continue spinning to cool the engine down. Then I come back to the car at around 10 to 15 minutes later, the fan already stopped, I disarmed the alarm, open the engine booth cover, I can hear a very soft sound, something like a static or similar sound that we also can heard from old electronic component vibrating. Not as exaggerate as fluorescent light's ballast vibrating, but very light "bzzzzzzzz....." type of sound. Hard to describe maybe similar to old capacitor's sound?

Is that the sound of coolant still circulating? Are there any electric motor still working? All turbo kit have this sound? Anyway, the sound totally disappeared when I check back about 20 or 30 minutes later.

I noticed this since last Sunday, until today I put my ear near to the front grill and I hear it again.

Not meant to worrying anything, but just curious which component still working after we stopped the engine.

Yes, WhitE LighteR, I think you are right about sound from electric pump, wow your car knowledge so good!
About the type of sound, I think not similar to water on hot surface, that will be like frying vegetable or sound of steam. To what I heard, it sound like robotic servo motor?


I did this test on fuel consumption:
I tried to be heavy foot for the last 2 tanks (RON95), although don't have chance to do it on all occasion, but I think I did it for 50% of time. The result are, not really a big difference on FC, maybe 10KM less mileage but not sure if it is due to heavy foot or other reasons (traffic jam frequencies etc...). Maybe my FC already high, so occasional heavy foot doesn't really affect my FC much.

Good morning all, happy weekend!

I want to buy the girl only, how much?

Bro fulat, no wonder... I almost want to ask why whenever I drive around 110-120km/h and want to accelerate more, I find the pedal very difficult to press, in fact I need to step on the pedal very hard. By the way, how you found this out?

Hi bro fulat, I just examined the pedal (carpet blocking throttle pedal), and was wonder if you only need to cut the coilmat carpet or the thick carpet on the "floor"? Which carpet to cut and how to cut? I'm sorry but I search with many terms but still can't find the information. Thanks in advance!

Hahaha.....

My time mostly occupied by my chindren, their study, their tuition etc (yes, even no Sunday for me)....

This thing very useful to me. Countless times both of my hands full of bags, box etc... pressed the remote control and it open up, no need to put the things on the dirty/wet floor. I agreed it has disadvantage too, but for my usage, this helps me more than giving me trouble. I use the trunk boot 3-4 times a day.

Great share! Thank you WhitE LighteR!
