Strange sounds from the console with engine off

When I drive my 2001 9-3 SE, 140k, I hear a noise from the console area from behind the radio it seems. When the car was newer the sound was not there. Then it happened intermittently and now it it is always present. When the engine is switched off, the sound continues sometimes for several minutes. When I switch the ignition key to ON w/o even starting the engine and then OFF, the sound appears and continues until it eventually stops. (Today I went to my bank, made a deposit at the ATM and it was still going on after several minutes when I returned to the car.)
In my imagination I link it somehow to the heating/cooling system. The sound could be from a fan. It could also be caused by the coolant flowing through hoses.
What could be possible source of the mysterious noise? While it does not bother me too much yet, it probably indicates that something bad is going to happen.
Thank you
