[Spacey]

"Poof" has unfortunate connotations in the UK...

Actually neither my wife or I had heard this before. Now I’ll probably hear it all the time !n It;s good to know however what sounds are normal. For example, today was pretty warm here in the Catskills of NY. Our Mach E was in the garage which got up to 92F. To get the video clip I turned on my Mach E And let it sit a minute or two, There was a pretty loud fan sound under the frunk which I assume was part of the cooling system for the battery. Then there are typical some click / clack sounds when I approach the car with FOB. Perhaps someone has done this already in a past post but if not perhaps a good one to start.

We can rename this a “puff” sounds. To me it‘s like the sound a NYC buss makes when stopping.

ok here it is - listen to the end

That sounds like the heat pump reversing valve opening after shutdown, which releases trapped refrigerant in the lines. This is normal.

Same here. 2025 GT. Never heard it before. Now that you mentioned it I hear it every time now.

That's the flux capacitor automatically resetting itself. On older models you used to have to do it manually.

Puff and poof are both bad...

How about "PFFT"

Mine poofs too. I recorded it but having trouble attaching it.

What the........The train has made it to the station was my 1st reaction!!!

Ok who knows what this sound is ? The first is me turning my Mach E mustang off and then listen to the next sound like a poof

Did you read any of the replies here? It's the air conditioning refrigerant reversing valve opening. The noise it is caused by the sudden equalization of pressure inside the refrigerant lines when the valve opens.

Poof sound = refrigerant

thank you - I didnt see your reply till now -weird how I recently traded in my 2023 for a 2026 and never heard that before - atleast you say its "normal"

LOL! Sounds like it’s relieved to be out of the heat!

And here I was thinking it was relieved for other reasons...

Exactly the same principle, both are depressurizing either by venting to the atmosphere or equalizing by opening valves.

Your 2023 didn't have a heat pump, that's why you didn't hear it before.

Now, I'm not sure I want a heat pump!!!
