Well like i said earlier, my old 2.5 CDX used to be the same, i have had this car for about 5 years and it has always been the same. I have got a couple of other cars, a Volvo V70 T5 and that doesn't ever seem that hot even after giving it a good run.
At least i know it is not only my car! :y

Thanks guys :)

entwood has it nailed. I checked mine for the same reason and after getting under it the heat from the cats was enough to toast bread on. If it had been dark I bet they would have glowed!
No worries.
