This seems to have started happenning.

I know I ought to contact my dealer but thought I would ask for advice ahead of that.

I guess it could be the fan bearings/ mountings and I could be unlucky after 8000 miles. I assume it is an electric thermostatically controlled fan.

Lasts a couple of minutes.

Edit: I've done a search (too late) and it seems it's "normal"! (don't understand why it didn't do it till recently though)

Yep ABC - mine does that too - it then goes to sleep :)

Was told it's the different bits and bobs shutting themselves down :think:

arcleid - it's not hard to tell once you get the car in the garage and are ready to leave :)

Indeed it isn't! Pretty loud - and initially quite disconcerting.
