New 110 funny noise when switched off

Hi all,



I have just got a new Defender which is brilliant, the only question is when I switch off it makes a funny noise for about a minute.........does anyone know what it is or should it do it.

what kind of noise would be consider 'funny'? does it sound like turbo winding down? (almost sounds like jet engine shutting down)

Has it got a fuel-burning heater fitted? If so and it's a sort of low whistling noise then it could be that.

It's the centrifugal oil filter spinning down, fairly normal, mine does it anyway!

if it's a TD5, then yes, that's probably it.

Hi all,

Thanks for the information about the Centrifugal Oil filter causing a strange noise on my Defender.
