Heat around your leg and foot area when you are driving?

From yesterday, when I was driving my C63, I feel the heat around my foot.

It only happen from yesterday, Is that normal for C63?

I got e55 before and doesn't have this issue.

Cheers!

Either above, or you live in a hot climate, had your sunroof or one window slightly open and the heat was recycling in the car?

Can you give a little more info?...

exterior temp?
interior temp?
AC on or Off?
Coolant Temp?
Oil Temp?
Conditions while driving?

so many questions...

Sounds like your tranny was getting hot. These cars produce tons of heat. Mine does the same during a track day.

Happens to me too. I always thought it was the transmission. In fact the entire area is very hot unless you keep the AC on.

I always keep the HEVAC controls on Auto and temp at 21°c. Never a problem with too hot or too cold and gets the A/C compresser and other parts cycling from time to time. Also keeps the seals from drying up and avoids misty windows on the inside when raining.
