Fan comes on after car shut off
I have a 01 Cls auto and some of you may have taken note of my issues with what appears to be heat soak and hard starting after a few stops around town.
I have noted that since these issues have come to the forefront that the fan turns on AFTER I shut the car off. If I turn the key to the point where the guages fire up or start the car the fan goes off.
Any suggestions??

Not once has the fan been on while my car was off. Ever. Either your low on coolant & the car is running thefan to cool down after it's off, or you have a bad fan, or fan switch.

as others have said, it can happen, and is not out of the ordinary, it is part of the programming to allow it to run after the car has been shut off (why do you think on quite a few cars, it has a sticker that "caution: fans may start at any time"
but yes i have only seen my TL, do it a couple of times, and even then i had just driven it hard, so it never had time to really cool down, so they kicked on when the key was turned off
and as others have kinda said, there previous honda's did it alot more; same here here with my old 94 accord
you mean civic?

My radiator fans have never come on after shut down. I employ all of the above as well, except for the rad pressure cap, in addition to the S/C'er, which makes my CL cook in stop-&-go traffic with the A/C on. It may help that I have an aluminum radiator though.
