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  laugh.gif  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.  hmm.gif

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

The sound you hear is like water being pour onto a hot surface right?
That is the sound of the electric water pump. Its cooling down the turbo. The fan will on together with the water pump, only if its very hot. But if its not, then only the water pump will on.

For those who felt the steering vibrate a lots when you braked, you need to have your disc rotor skimmed.

That solves my problem.
*
u need to sand paper your disc pad also. else the line will imprint back to the disc like before.

u should check the aircon  filter to filter those dust and oil base micro substances inside your car... its located inside the front passenger side. take out the drawer then u should be able to find it.. its a like a tray. take it out and put in 1 or 2 piece of active carbonized paper in should solve yours problem.

sad to tell u that preve is too new to find a suitable filter. but again.. i found the exora bold filter almost the same size like the preve one.. maybe u can try the exora bold aircon filter.
*
yup. till now still dont have sad.gif

to bad the offer made to made prototype of the aircon filter did not get much support from members.
