Each time I turn of the engine after driving it makes this noise for a little while.
Ive had a Scirocci 1,4tsi before and cant remember it doing the same thing.. Anyone else heard this?

It's hard to hear from the video but is it a "ticking" noise as sometimes the charcoal filter can "tick" for a little while afger switching off.

If it's a "whirring" noise it's likely to be the electric secondary coolant pump that keeps coolant circulating for a few mins after switch off to prevent heatsoak.

Thanks Bob :) Sounds like a pump, so that could be the culprit :)
Its almost a pneumatic sort of sound.
