Warm Inside?

<< < (2/4) > >>

Fourby:
I love the shelf the transmission tunnel makes. However, it's no place to stash your chocolate bar!

it's normal for it to get warm

My tunnel used to get hot, very hot. Found out that when driving with a gear/transfer box full of water, that it was heating up to boiling point.

Check your boxes oil content :idea:

Thanks for the replies guys, its a Td5 with an R380 gearbox... neither of the (gear/transfer) levers were hot - I touched the 'shelf' the top of the tunnel makes - its topped in my ES by a plastic/veneer cover - and it was very hot. The vehicle is new to me (2 days) and I will drain/renew all the fluids - service is due...

Cheers,

Nick

Landyrover:
Having driven the vehicle again this morning, I noticed that the heat is coming from under the plastic trim just to the right of the cigarette lighter - maybe there is a pipe or similar under there that explains the rise in temperature? :?:  :?:

Cheers,

Nick

There are air ducts to each side - they can pop off .....
