Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
I hafta add that most diesels have a "fuel shutoff solenoid"....this controls your fuel rack via the key.(turns it ON prior to start, with injectors)
Normally if you turn to "accesories" and not "start" you will hear noise,,and vice versa. Generally takes 3 to 5 seconds. Easy way to check is pop your bonnet, get someone to turn thr key OFF after 15 seconds of accessories, and hear the solenoid whine.....
hope this helps

Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
As I said in my previous post, i get the noise without putting the key in at all. Simply by unlocking the car with the remote, after a while I hear it.....

Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
Mine did this today, when the car was unlocked first thing in the morning, but had been not driven or had the key inserted.
Oh well, the car is still awesome.
Cheers,
Chris.

Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
I checked mine this morning, didnt make any noises (That i could hear anyway) when i unlocked it. Only noises were the after turning the key (fuel thingy etc).
I've got into the habit of waiting until the glow plug light goes out now too before cranking it - esp on cold mornings..
You might have the special model that has the inbuilt expresso machine - just need to find it now!!

Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
I think it is the cooling pump, mine only does it after I shut down!

How long does your glow plug light stay on for? mine is less then a second, you really have to be looking to see it!

Normally for about a second. On the really cold mornings it can stay on for a couple of seconds.
I notice that i get the original noise if i turn my key to 'Run' and then back off, definitely sounds like a pump. Whatever it is it mustn't be thermostatically controlled as my engine was stone cold.

On my old Mazda 6 the hand book did tell you to let the turbo cool down before switching off (something I still do) but there seems to be no warning in the x trail manual
I didn't have to wait for the turbo to cool down on my Y60 (97) Patrol. And that was a mechanical diesel motor, no CPU.
The turbo simply cooled down when you drove in surburban streets.
The turbo kicked in at around 1900 RPM and when it was less, it started to cool itself down.
I would imagine that the Xy is similar.

Re: Buzzing noise after shutting down the engine?
Hi Chris,
This buzzing noise after engine shut-down is indeed the cooling pump of the turbo and this has been confirmed to us by Nissan and discussed in THIS thread.
