Heat in the Cockpit

Took the wife out over the weekend and she kept complaining about how hot is was on her side the car. Ran my hand along her side of the console, sure enough there's lots of heat coming out. I checked under the console and the only opening I see is for the shifter and its not large.

Any ideas about how to correct this? The AC doesn't work right now it will probably be a while before she'll go out again if I don't so something.

Thanks,
Tomy

Leave her at home?? JK

There is a piece of molded foam that inhibits heat from traveling from the engine compartment down the TT and into the passenger cockpit. When Motor Mounts have collapsed, there is a gap created between the foam and the TT tunnel. That's what allows heat to enter along the console. Additionally, when the Transmission mounts are collapsed, the same thing can occur.

Replace your motor mounts.
