My car is trying to cook my feet while I drive, any suggestions?

There is a ton of heat coming from the right side of the pedal area while the car is running. I think I have seen mention of it here before, but couldn't find any info. Has anyone found a better way to insulate it or anything? My passengers don't like the fact that I have the AC on when it is cold outside. It gets hot enough that I can feel it up around the steering wheel. I will bring it up to my dealer, but they won't do anything...

And it doesn't come from the passenger side (m)

I think Audi designed it this way so the driver could feel a little of the stress that we impose upon the engine.

hmm... you must not drive with your windows open...

with or without a previous visit to taco bell.

i've never really experienced having the car give off that much heat to be honest. is there hot air coming out of the heat duct in the footwell?

white cars also give off alot of heat. you can read it in the next issue of the enquirer.
