Randoms Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Afternoon all, So today I've been running around the doors (short journeys) & have noticed while locking car that engine bay fan is running. On pervious motors I've experienced this usually after long trips or in the summer due to heat, today however it's about 5c, with strong winds & rain in the Northeast. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? Have I done it by wiring in dash cam? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simcor Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Is it a diesel? If it is then it is attempting a DPF regeneration and the cooling fan will be requested hence why it runs for a short period when you stop the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
