Hot front right wing/fender
Posted: Thu Nov 24, 2011 7:18 am
So i had a rather "spirited" drive home last night, 10kms, ambient temp was 21.5c just after a rain shower.
I got home and touched the front right wing right above the gap between bonnet and wing and i could have cooked an egg on it it was so hot. I opened the bonnet and it was just that side what was hot. I had the lights on, halogen and white out indicators, but surely that would not have been the cause.
Please tell me its not a bust manafold pumping heat that direction. Any suggestions or similar experiences?
I did the same journey on the way into the office and touched the wing and it was ice cold. WTF
PS its an '04 B6. Tx
