Yep, nothing to worry about. Mine has done this twice in the 3 months I've had the X.

Mine has only done it once this year. Never had it happen last year. I ussually let the car iddle for 30 seconds minimum before it shut down. Or i cruise slow to my parking spot to allow the engine to cool down.

My fans stay on when car is off "new problem"

So, basically, this has been covered a bunch of times before and it's normal behaviour.

. Alright so this problem has been solved? Well sadly not for me.... my car will keep the fans on as long as a battery is connected. It's done this once before but I fixed the problem with taking off the batteries (I have 2) for 24 hrs. But I have no idea where to start.... any ideas? If the key is in the off position..... then the fan is on, if it's in "acc" then it's off, and the same when the car is started and running(off) please somebody help!!!! Lol
