Hood Steaming
Only over the last couple of weeks I've noticed it idle a somewhat large amount of steam passing through the hood vents near the driver.
I would think it's 'normal' but I've only noticed it recently and thought it might just be something to do with my C3 Intake around there and the grease etc. ?
Car is running fine, apart from an alternator error there is no warnings and engine temp is stable.
We've been hitting ~100 in temps around here but even on a normal day heat wise I still notice it. I know we run a lot of heat under these hoods, especially when we start modding but it isn't something I've noticed all the time up until recently.
Thoughts?
