Default Have you experienced this?

I was driving home in manual, using my paddle shifters. When I shifted into park and turned the car off, the fan kept on running. After 10 minutes it was still running. I started the car, placed it in drive, then park and then turned it off. Upon doing so, the fan shut off. This is the second time this has happened. Anyone else experienced this? Z06 A8 Transmission

Normal on a hot day. Fan is cooling the radiator. Many modern cars do this.
