   When I turn my car off I am getting a weird noise about a second after I switched off, it's like a grinding sort of sound, any ideas on what it could be?

   Does it sound a bit like the fuel pump priming?

   The fan was not on and it still did it. And it doesn't sound like fuel priming, it seems to be coming from the throttle body area and inlet I think but not 100% it is from there. Any more ideas on what it could be?

   You'll have to use a different site like Youtube, Photobucket or possibly Flickr then link us to it.

    If it's the same noise as in the video it's the ICV (idle control valve) adjusting that's making the nois, mine does it, they all do it.

    Hmmm it never use to make this sound, it started about a week ago, just doesn't seem normal for it to start doing this when it use to not

    You could always try unplugging the icv before you turn the engine off to see if it is definately that?
