Doesn't sound normal for a petrol engine. If its a brand new car or one under warranty a trip to the dealers might be advisable to put your mind at rest or fix it.

Some sort of temperature sensor out of whack I'd guess.

You say its a Mk7 and its DSG but do we assume its a GTI and not a GTD?

Do you have climate control on? Turn it off and see if the fan goes off.

Is it brand new, or just new to you?

If it's brand new then something's amiss. If it's a used car, your GPF might be going through a regen.
