    Just replaced the Thermostat housing on my 2011 MINI Cooper S. Now the engine fan continues to run after shutting off the car. This was not the case prior to replacing the Thermostat.

    can anyone tell me if I missed a step somewhere?

    On both my wife's 14 R57 and my 12 R58 the fan runs after shutting off the motor. How long is it running?

    It is normal for the electric cooling fan to run for a short period after the engine is shut off, if the coolant is hot. Again, how long is it running?
