560sl running hot

New owner of a 89 560sl.I've noticed that after driving a while there is a fair amount of heat coming from under the dash.(more towards my feet)I have the a/c heat off.the temp. gauge seems to be in the normal range.is there something wrong or is this just how this car runs.
thanks

Sounds like heat from the engine. My feet tend to get warm at times. I guess it's normal.

I had this problem as heat was actually bellowing out towards the feet area. Great in winter but sucked in Summer !!

Turns out the AC amplifier needed replacement.
