Feels warm near steering column

Dasweb · 10-23-2012, 10:54 PM

As the title says, after a tad while I feel a pocket of "warm air" near the left side of the steering column.

Anyone else have this happen? It's warm enough to warm my left knee.

Always assumed it was the engine bay heat seeping into the cabin. The same thing happens with my old man's FX35.

This happened to me when I first got my car. I'm not sure if it's because I'm used to it or something, but I don't feel it at all anymore. It's natural though

I thought the same thing, the very first day i got my Z it bugged me because it felt like i had the heat on. But ever since then i don't notice it anymore, i guess i am just used to it.
