My car makes a noise after I turn off the engine. It sounds like two forks scraping together. I'm pretty sure this is normal b/c the car's done it all its life. I assume it's part of the transmission. I've never heard an auto do it. Thanks.

Probably just your internals slowing down. I doubt it's something that's a big deal.

it's nearly a full 5 seconds after i turn it off. I was thinking flywheel....ive never had one before, I have no idea.

Hmm...
Honestly, I couldn't give you an answer unless I could actually hear it.

forks scraping together?
hmm.....
like a dinging noise?
if so it's probably your muffler/exhaust cooling.
my sunfire does it the min it turnes off it will make that sound my friends grand am does it to. i think its just the pulleys slowing down. thats the area it comes from.
it could be the pullies I suppose, I always thought the engine completely stopped when you turned the key off.
I do have the exhaust cooling noise though, it comes from my converter.

it is more like a snapping/poping noise that sounds like tuning forks then its ur exhuast cooling down and the metal is retracting abit...
I can hear two noises, one from the engine (I'm 99% sure) and the exhaust popping

The exhaust is fine.
The other I'm at a loss for, probably nothing if the car still drives and runs the same.
I d k, the noise i guess sounds like metal on metal grind to a halt sound. Yes there is oil in there, i check it every day, just like my tire pressure.
Don't the radiator fans spin for a while? Maybe one of them is wobbly.

radiator fan wouldnt spin at all unless your car was hot or you had a CEL. and i dont know why it would be the pullies ive never seen one spin when the car is off
