Interior heat from floor with top down?

ceverman3619 · 03-22-2012, 08:15 AM

Does anyone else get a lot of heat from the floor when driving with the top down on hot days? I've have had many other convertibles and never had heat from the floor as in the Z. Can't tell if it's from the engine or exhaust, or both. Anyone else notice this problem?

Does this describe what you are feeling?

That's exactly it, thanks!

Guess I should search this before posting. My wife and I roasted yesterday coming back from a short trip, guess I'll have to use the A/C from now on. Kinda defeats the purpose of a convertible if you have to use the A/C when the tops down.

Hey, thanks again, I really appreciate the help.

In my 69 Vette vert my toes would get toasted if I wore sandles. Learned to wear sneakers with it. As for the ac/heat with a vert it is OK to use just don't have the windows up with the top down, you will look like a tool LOL.
