2009 C350 engine temp

Hey guys,

I've been driving my car for almost a month now and absolutely love it. However, I've noticed that the passenger side of the hood and the front passenger quarter panel get EXTREMELY hot after driving. Too hot to even touch. It definitely doesn't seem normal

Is this common, is the heat buildup caused by something known? Any insight is appreciated before I take it in. Thanks!

Huh? Open the hood, touch the battery cover, is it hot to the touch.

Have you taken a good look in the engine bay? Maybe you've had some squirrel's, mice, birds in there recking havoc? Of course you may have an exhaust issue, etc that a decent mechanic can find pretty easily.
