Funny you mention about this clicking sound when turning the ignition off as I found a similar thing with mine, is it more like just one loud click as this is what mine does, took it down to local dealer and said it was normal and it's just the throttle body shutting down (or something like that)

hi cruiser thanks for reply yeh thats exactly the same click youve put my mind at ease thought it was something else gonna go

Yep I get that click also, when fitting my wiper linkage I could hear it from around the firewall. I'm sure someone said it was the fuel pressure being released some how.

No mate, had my car for just over a year and only really noticed it recently, I did remove and clean out the throttle body a while ago and seems louder since then (probably coincidence I'm sure), also hear it somewhat about a second or so after the car fires up.
