whirring noise - Land Rovers Only

i have a whirring noise that lasts approx. 15 seconds after i turn the engine off, it sounds like it's coming from the rear but i can't be sure.........any ideas??

Do you have the rear air bags? If so, that would be the SLS leveling itself after you park(air compressor).

I'm not sure where the D2 fuel pump resides, but if the noise is different or basically absent when you fill the tank, ie the pump would be immersed if I'm right and it resides in the tank, it could be coming from there also.

Couldn't be any worse than here in Turkey, $8 USD/Gallon ($2/L for you metric folks)

Terrible!

Good luck!

just had another listen, it's coming from the front and it sounds like the fan slowing down to a stop, but I shouldn't be able to hear that should I?

I'm pretty sure I know this one....
Look for this thing under the hood....

My flux capacitor is always making that sound.

Sorry I couldn't resist.
You might be able to isolate it by pulling some fuses to the fans and see which fan it is that way. No sound means you have the right fuse.
