Radiator fan runs after shut off

I have a 2011 Jetta tdi that even in cold weather (around freezing) the radiator fan occasionally keeps running after shut off. The temp Guage says 190 and never goes over that. When I get out of the car I get a faint smell of hot rubber. Nothing ov r whelming. I have about 113,000miles. Anybody had this issue before and what the cause was? I don't recall ever having this burnt rubber smell before. Could it be fan belt is old and slipping? It's the original one. Selling it back to VW in couple months but don't want to get stranded somewhere long way from home.....again

Regen, and as per design.

"regen" or "regeneration" are great search terms here... you'll find lots of good discussion on this oft-discussed topic.

Man, we have not had a "my fans keep running" thread here in a while. Might be the first I've seen this year!

relay stuck, like in the older ones?

I can't believe someone owns one of these cars and has no idea about regens. Joined here in 2014 too.
