Mine runs on after switching off, think it's a standard feature, does it more on hot days or when i've had a heavy right foot.

Could be a faulty temperature sender or switch.

Do you have air con (on)?

Faulty temperature sensor maybe or a fault in rad control module
Fault codes and measuring blocks are your friend
