The 2.0TFSIs do have an electric coolant pump which continues circulating coolant to cool the oil/turbo/engine etc for about 10 mins after switch off depending on engine temp

Wow, I learn something new about my car every week and that is some German perfection right there!

You can hear it if you listen carefully in front of the car when the engine is off

....Not this one - The spelling of "dam" would be correct if I had designed it! I have designed T-shirts and also full cycle racing club gear (Lycra) in my past working life. I bought that one, the last they had, at a VeeDub show - Too good a message to pass up.  :happy2:
