Subject: Cabin heat build up - gear jump
I am new to the forum and have a V12 Short Chassis Saloon. Over the last 2 years it has been "refurbished" and is now in good running order (once being owned by Jim Whitehead). Two annoyances:
1. Despite plugging every hole to be found, heat still leaks into the cabin from the engine bay. Is this a "standard feature" or does anyone have a fix? (OK in Winter, but in Sydney Summers, devastating)
2. On trailing throttle, Second gear sometimes jumps out. Under load there is no problem. Again, can anyone comment, please?
