It's the Fuel Burning Heater (FBH): http://www.disco3.co.uk/wiki/Fuel_Burning_Heater Thumbs Up

It can run a little while to purge itself after the engine's switched off, but otherwise, the fan will run for a while to cool it down. Wink Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Yep; some whirring from the FBH is normally a good sign - it means it's working! Laughing Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK
