Do you or your passenger ever get a cold arm? 03 Tuscan cold air blowing up through the slit where the seat belt disappears in to the body.The car has been back to main dealer but no joy.Or is it they all do this SIR.

Ours does it. And the T350C...

So I think it may be a "they all do..."

Never noticed it - unless the windows are open a bit in which case the wind comes in one side, whips round the back of the car and then blows down your arm - but with the windows closed I don't get a draft there - so no, they DON'T all do that!!

Sorry, wasn't having a go - just getting a bit fed up with hearing about dealers always saying "They all do that" when mine doesn't - am wondering if I have an odd one!!

Just wish the dealers would look in to the problem properly and maybe talk to each other/TVR and get to the bottom of the issues, wouldn't that be nice!

PS _ Since mine seems to miss out on lots of the problems mentioned, does that mean that Walldonway do a better PDI than 'some other' dealers!!!! (Hello Mr Cat, meet the Pigeon family)

No drafts in mine but then at this time of year I tend to wear a flying jacket anyway. Oh! and I've jst discovered you can rotate the brass covers in the air vents on the pod and turn that freezing air off!

Don't you find that it blows onto your thighs instead? I do

No - as has been said before, this isn't normal and you should get it fixed

I dont get any cold drafts unless the roof and rear screen are out

Hey you, less of the rolling eyes!

Let me get this straight, if you turn the brass inserts on the bottom of the pod the air flow stops? As you'd expect when I turn mine it stops the air blowing onto my hands/face. Instead it seems to come out of the side of the brass inserts and escape through the gap between the pod and the steering column.

Promise I won't ask again!

Sorry, didn't mean to seem rude!

Yes, when I twiddle my brass bits the air stops, as far as I can tell it doesn't come out anywhere else, not down on to my knees or anything!!

Sorry again, hope this is a bit more helpful
