1. The heat comes from the driver side vents when driving. The lever in the middle is pulled into close position. I checked the little baffle under the car, and it is operational. When I open the red lever, I get a lot more heat through the vents, but when I close it, there is still heat coming. On the passenger side it's just outside breeze that comes in. Is there another baffle anywhere else? Any ideas?
Thought I'd chime in on this issue -- there should be two separate baffles under the car, each controlled (opened/closed) by the corresponding red lever by the parking brake -- these baffles can get corroded/rusted and stop closing correctly -- sounds like the driver's side baffle isn't closing completely and is still letting some of the hot air generated by the heat exchanger into the cabin. Have you checked/confirmed operation of each of these baffles?

Here's another thread on this topic that could be helpful -- note that folks generally refer to the baffle as a "flapper box" http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/397037-heater-flapper-box.html
