Time needed to cool
Hey guys

I just got my first MB GL450. It's a 2013. Really love it so far.

Q: i've noticed even after driving it for 15-20m, after i get home and park it, takes 2 hours to really cool down the hood and engine compartment.

Is that ... normal ?


Thanks !

With my 63 it takes even longer. It's nice, that it can hold the temperature (especially in the winter time).
