It seems to be more when I turn right... but when its nice & warm in the car & I do turn right, where the gearstick is it gets cold very quickly, kinda like a draft, but as soon as I go straight again, it warms up!

I can't hear no cracking or creaking noises, so not sure what it could be??

Bad door seal?
Crack in the bulkhead/floor?
Dodgy rubber seal-things where the tubing for the heatermatrix comes through?

did have it up on the ramps the other week lookin underneath, but couldnt really see anything...

the shell will flex as load is applied to it, so it's probably just flexing a little and letting a draft in.
