Default crank winding noise?

theres like a winding noise under the d side dash whenever old jeepy's been off for like 5 minutes.
sounds like something is cranking up.
its been like that since i got it like 6 months ago.

its only like a 2 second crank.
it sounds real fast.
so its impossible to know when its going to do it.
its very, odd?

not everyday, but when it does it, it does it like 3 times that day.
it happens when i turn the car off and put it in park. about 3 minutes later... CRRRRRAAAANK.
