Maybe give it a few weeks, see how it goes?

Thanks guys, the warranty runs out in March as well so all this work it's had would of cost a arm and a leg.

^ Fair enough

It's a shame as they can be great cars but in your position I'd probably feel the same

I have the same type of fan noise on mine but it's actually an electric water pump for cooling the turbo after shut off which runs for 2- about 10 mins depending how hot the turbo is

Thats me too then, And 10 minutes for me :-)

When you don't hear that noise is the time to worry as pump not working correctly cooling the turbo

[Chris_Blue]

On older cars with Turbo's , you had to run the engine for a few minutes after stopping to help the Turbo cool down, or the Turbo would suffer damage

Yes they did was called a turbo timer or simmer stat to keep the oil circulating while the turbo cooled,think they were only oil cooled in those
days,not water cooled as modern car turbo's are
