Nock type noise from rear when turning off

I have a 2008 Mini Cooper S and have noticed that sometimes when I turn the engine off I hear like a low wirring and nocking coming from the rear of the car. Goes for about a minute nocks go quicker and stops. What could this be? Is it normal?

Here is a link of the audio I posted in another forum. Sorry for the bad quality.

My car does this too! Hopefully someone knows what it is. Sure is odd.

normal "farts". something to do with gas venting. anyway, there are several other flatulence support threads regarding this phenomenon.

It's normal. I hear it on my Clubman every once in while when I shut off the car and even sometimes at a stop light.

I thought this post looked familiar. Same answer now that I've heard the sound - It's the fuel tank.
