Weird heat issue

AlonShalev · 10-08-2009

This has only happened a few times (not in a consistent way) but did anyone ever feel that while driving some heat from the engine is entering the drivers floor/leg zone? It only happened to me a few times but it was very noticeable and lasted like 10 minutes.
It felt like hot air from the engine entered the car and that freaked me out every time. Can this may be related to my aftermarket dual exhaust? Something else maybe?
Thanx.

i wouldnt think that it would have anything to do with the aftermarket exhaust cuz if it was you would probably feel it whenever your car is at idle and warmed up

now that youve brought this up, a few times i have felt warm air coming through my ac vents, when everything it set to off. was your heat/cool direction knob set to floor by any chance? now that its gotton chilly out, its not much of a issue, but come next summer it will be

No, all of these times the a/c was off and the windows were open (and it continued when i closed them as well). I know that a/c thing, it happens in lot's of cars...

This is a very common problem with the S197. There's nothing wrong.

I get cold air coming in in the winter, at least thats the only time I notice. It only happens when I corner hard to the left.
