Regarding heat on the 1.9 seems like all the electronics heat up
I really wish it could stay cooler, but the van only has those side vents
and don't really think the motor or parts stay cool. Things heat up and
parts fail with age ofcourse. wish i could direct more cool air
into the motor area in other words.
