It's called heat-soak and it's quite normal. When you switch the engine off there's still a huge amount of heat stored in that big cast-iron block, and with the coolant no longer circulating the temperature can rise above boiling point. The radiator cap lets the steam out via the overflow bottle, hence the bubbles.
My 2JZ used to do this all the time until I wired up my thermo fans to constant power, ie if the coolant is hot the fans will come on even if the ignition is off. No more bubbling. 
|
did the fans ever run enough to drain the battery so you couldnt start the car again?
