I just recently got an i3 and i am still learning about it. When i turned off the car today i noticed a sound stayed on for a while. Is it a fan to cool the batteries? Just curious.
 
Many things don't actually turn off until you either hit the stop button a second time, you lock the car, or it times out (around 10-minutes). I generally just hit the STOP button twice out of habit (my other BMW works the same, it doesn't go completely off just like the i3 does). This time of year, I'd be surprised if it was cooling the batteries, but if you have a REx, and it had been running, the cooling fan could stay on.
