Default Weird pinging sound!!

When i turn off my car it sounds like theres ping-pong ***** inside the motor, almost like popcorn popping. But this only happens immediately after i turn off the car. Any suggestions? I tried searching but came up with nothing realted to my situation. Thanks

It's the sounds of hot metal cooling off. Nothing to worry about. Unless it sounds like someone is hitting a vice w/ a hammer, then that's not good. It's more the exhaust. I don't believe that aluminum does that.
