Does your E70 make Odd Noises when Everything is quiet?

So we are new to E70 Ownership, coming off of 10 good years with an E53..

Was noticing the other day when I had the radio off, sitting still at a traffic light, some odd motorized noises coming from within the dash, sometimes accompanied by some soft clicking/clunking noises..

I initially thought it was just the HVAC redirecting air around, but I have heard it several times now, and not so sure..

Normal?

Also noticed after shutting the car off, if I don't get out right away, I will sometimes hear similar noises, as well as clicks that sound like old school relays..

And last night I got out of the car, Locked it, but didn't walk away immediately, and a short time later heard similar sounds from under the hood area?

Starting to worry about stories I have heard of these things spontaneously combusting..


Normal or possessed?
