Question Ok- sound when I shut off the car-

Everytime recently when I shut off the car, I get a weird moan type sound for about 1/2 second. You know, when you turn the key off, the RPM's drop, the engine goes bbbbbmmmmm, and the shifter shakes just a little. Normal...but right at the end of the bbbbbbmmmmm, there is a tone almost like a slightly higher-pitched defined owl "hoo". Doen anyone know what I'm talking about, or is my car trying to speak?

I'm actually working on trying to get that, just to see it once! But not more than once

True, it does sound like it coming from my clutch. Did your friends clutch blow soon after that sound?!?
