Question Need Help!!! Heat coming from the undervent

Whenever I am driving heat coming from under the driverside, and also shift area and dash panel gets very hot.

Does anyone know why it happens and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

Take a look under the car at the exhaust system, pay special attention to the heat shielding around the convertor. Good Luck

I hade changed the catalytic converter from the driver’s side a week ago, but I still have the same problem.

Heat is coming only from driver’s side.
