Is it normal?
Hello to everyone, this is my first thread here. Tried to use the search but I guess maybe Iīm using the wrong keywords.
Well, the thing is I have a 125i and when driving sometimes the heat from the engine gets to the console (radio), and the driver side. When I get off the car and touch the hood (near the intake) itīs really hot. So I was wondering if Iīm being too paranoid, or it isnīt normal. (This is my first l6 engine) Thank you in advance, please donīt be mad if the answer is "what did u expect from a 3.0 l6". |

So in short, maybe If you are really concerned though, get it warmed up to that point and swing by the dealer and have a SA/tech tell you for sure if they think it is a problem or not. |

Mine also gets pretty hot inside the car on that 'bump' on the driver's side center console below the dash.
I think it may be partly heat from the radio amp, and partly heat from the transmission as it's pretty close on that side especially. |
