almost everytime i turn off my tc i hear the weird rattling coming from the hood for like about 1 minute..anyone else with this problem???

dont know if its something I should bring my car to the dealer for...

Do this open the door and turn the car on with the AC off then turn the AC on if it rattles when you turn the AC on check your cooling fans. I had a wire fall out of its holder and was rubbing on the fans blades...

are you hearing a rattling?? or a ticking noise after you turn your car off??
and is it coming from your ENGINE or your HOOD??

PrivateTucker

I hear ticking, no rattling. I can understand where he came up with rattling tho, mine ticks fast for a bit, then settles down. Kinda like a water leak running out...

i too hear this noise. what wire is it??

PrivateTucker

mines not a wire issue. I came to believe that its metal cooling down and causing the "creaking" or ticking..

ScionBandit

metal cooling, fluids dripping
its all normal

funny, i just got to the house and parked my car. i was using the a/c for a min and when i turned off the car and looked over the hood, i heard a rattle noise, not the typical ticking, but 1 rattle. then it stopped. weird.

i got a rattler from a rattle snake haging in my rear view mirror. i hear rattles everyday! you may have a snake underyour hood man!! !

JoeSnow

well my noise sounds more like a ticking...its weird anyone with any idea what might cause this?

Kaeon

My car ticks for while after I shut it down. Its the metal cooling most likely... IE Manifold, Header ETC

TheQuietThings

yes, this happens beause of the change of tempature. Metal expands when its heated, and contracts when its cooling.

so its the engine cooling off and all the metals contracting and what not. Totally normal for any car.
