Hey all, we just got my wife's m35 stagea back from the repairers after a minor accident and it has seemingly acquired a turbo timer. We were not aware that car even had one but since its return it now runs for a minute after driving when the ignition is turned off. This seems to be temperature based as the engine will instantly switch off if its just started and killed straight afterwards. The only aftermarket electronics in the car is an AVC-R boost controller..

I had a bit of a poke around under the dash etc to seem if there is anything that stands out but there's nothing instantly obvious and as far as I can tell this is not something offered from factory? It's not really a problem but is not necessary as the mrs doesnt drive hard enough to warrant the cool down. it can also be irritating as the car can't be locked and immobilised until the ignition switches off meaning you have to hang around and can be a hassle at servos when it's busy.

A lot of the cooling system/fans etc were replaced in the repairs so I'm wondering if that has had an affect or possibly the accident has knocked something loose somewhere. It's a real mystery to me so any suggestions as to where I go next would be awesome. Can provide some pics if needed.
