Strange noise when car is idle with Start/Stop

Experienced a strange noise when the car (2014 S550) is idle and the engine is shut off by the Start/Stop system, video link below. I brought the car to MB of Tampa on Saturday and they still don't know what it is. They determined it's not the engine and are still looking for the cause of the noise. Anyone experience anything similar?

Is that from the engine bay? If so it might be the low pressure coolant circulation pump for the inter cooler/turbo system... The radiator is located at the lower right front...

I don't have that problem because the ECO/Start-stop system on my 2015 S-550 does not work most of the time and gas mileage is well below expectations.

Check the fuse/relay for the airmatic pump. Sounds like its running. Any warning lights?
