Not really enough information, but I'll hazard a guess anyway.
Assuming that this is a clicking/popping noise, I'd say that it's just due to the car cooling down. The variety of metals cool at different rates, and the you'll often hear clicks or pops or pings for several minutes after the ignition is turned off. I have a hard time believing that this is your problem, though, because every car I've ever seen/heard does this and I would think that you would have heard this before and know that it is normal.
