why do hot engines “click” when turned off?

471 views

After driving for a little while, you turn into a parking lot, park your car, turn it off and get out. Then you hear the engine making clicking sounds. It only does it when it’s hot, does it have something to do with metals expanding when they’re hot or?

Are you sure you’re not just hearing the oil drip into the pan?
