Hot air from dash vents
Anyone with IS350 getting hot air blowing in from dash air vents? Same as most cars there are some small amount of air flowing in even when the fan is turned off. However, no matter the outside temperature it always feels warm and eventually will get uncomfortable enough to force opening the window even on cooler days. In other cars I've owned, the vent air temp will depend on the outside temp but not in this car. Would it be because the engine is actually running too hot? The temp gauge is always normal but it does appear the radiator fan comes on more frequently with this car than others I've owned.

This issue is bit of a hassle because I have to either have the window/roof slightly open all the time which increase the noise inside or have the climate control always turned on. I'm trying to figure out if this is just normal for these cars or I should really have the ventilation system checked out.

The dash on these gets really hot, even when not much sun. This causes heat soak residual air to come out warm for some time but it should go away.
If it doesnt leave the aircon on auto and see if it cools down
