I just got the car a week ago ago and for the first few days I heard it running after I shut the car off... it was like a very faint pump sound, but the last 3 or 4 days I haven't heard it.

Should I be worried and go get this checked out or does it just not come on all the time? Not sure if it matters, but it's sorta cold here now.... 20's at night and maybe low 40's during the day.
If you push the REST button on the Climate Control, the pump has to run to keep the car warm. If it appears that it isn't running then you should have it checked out. It may just be that at the temps you mention the pump only has to run for a very short period of time and thus you don't notice it. If you have a real doubt, you should have it checked out though, since it could result in turbo damage.
