Can anyone give me some guidance before I contact garage.
When I stop the engine a loud vibration and noise (like a motor running) comes from the components in the front of the engine. Also a noise like a valve cutting in and out repeatedly. Lasts for about 5 or 6 seconds.

Any help would be appreciated.

Just the rad cooling fan doing it's job.

Thanks for reply Gel.
Does this even if engine is cold. Had car from new and am familiar with rad fan when I stop.
You can see the pipes shaking and a lot of vibrating noise. definitely not a normal fan noise.

Have car in for repair on 10th November and will update when resolved.
Had a better look at fan etc and it is wobbling around and shaking the housing
Not to be confused with the sound of the fan running normally.
