Getting Hot In Here

[RiSiNSta-]

I need some advice on this problem i have in my R34. Well for some reason when i drive on the freeway reaching 100Kms around my feet area it feels like a heater blowing and it gets quite hot . Sometimes theres also a burning smell ?? Just wanted to know if this is a common thing or i should get it checked out?!??!!?

Check that maybe you turned off the circulation for ur air-conditioning and left the vents open for the outside air to come in?

There's a white plastic pipe behind the car air conditioner which blows the heat into the car but sometimes it breaks (mine did and i felt like it was blowing hot air onto my feet) you need to take your deck and all that crap out and reattach the pipe as i'm assuming its popped out in the direction of your feet. Otherwise i'm not sure whether you know how to use your air con haha

btw its when my air con or heater isnt on, thx ill keep that in mind

turn your climate control down as low as it will go (18?).

If you have it set to say 24, the fan turned off and your window down, you would think your heater is off. In reality the heater is on (because its sensing it's colder than 24) but not blowing. If you have your vents set to "fresh" it will be collecting the heater hot air and spitting it out as it passes through the system.

Wow that sounds confusing.. Just turn your temp to 18 and see if it still happens

Hope that helps

I noticed this also when i first got my skyline although i could be a few things first thing to do is check that its on 18 before turning it off, if it is still hot air coming through proceed to the next evaluation

Common problem with 33's and 34's mate. I have checked this with Fabian from X-Speed/Autobahn Mandurah. I first noticed it after my 100,000km service from Autobahn driving home at like you said, around 100km/hr-ish really intense heat comin onto my feet. I pulled over straight away thinkin they farked somethin up in my service and called them back up.

If it gets too hot for you, while the aircon/fan is OFF, turn the knob all the way to the left and you will get cool air coming out, even though the fan/air con etc is OFF, it still effects the temperature coming out by your feet.

So Hope that helped.

I've done similar in my R and I still get pretty warm air coming through. The A/C doesn't work, though better get it cranking just in time for Summer.

hit the re-circulation button

picture of a car with an arrow inside it, stops the air coming out at your feet
