I could hear fluid rushing noise after shutting off the car that last about two mintues ,I guess it was either coolent or gas rushing back to somewhere? does Durtec always do that ?

It is coolant still running through some of the pipes. Most newer cars do that. My Zetec does.

I noticed this more in the summer, and it's the refrigerant in the A/C evaporator system boiling. Makes sense that it would happen in the winter too, if you are running the defroster.
