I drive an A-C 500i and it has a rather hot exhaust on my left leg. Wonder if anyone else has the problem and/or if there are any suggested fixes. Open up some flow-through ports in the front splash panels? pipe insulating? OR?

 

If you check your owners manual your left leg has a part number and its called a carbon based heat sink. Seems like AC never RODE one of these before they started to sell them.

I have the same issue with our TRV's.

 

After only 3 beers tonight that was a witty remark!!! However, I have the same experience with my TRV. Let us know if you find a fix, other than a welding glove wrapped around the leg!

 

my trv also got hot i found that by going to a bigger jet it has helped my dealer said they change the jets when they get them in (i live in utah) do to the altitude they put in 132 it comes with a 147 i now have a 137.5 works great in all elev. more power, cooler running.might see what yours has in it?

 

wear two pairs of pants?
