I am not sure if this problem is in my imagination. I seem to be getting an increased air flow from all the internal ducts when I am cornering hard. Now I cannot confirm my suspicions as waving a hand over a duct while hammering round a roundabout is not to be tried. Also I cannot think of how this situation can be explained. Any Ideas ?

Maybe the cornering force is enough to move the fan speed control momentarily....

Exactly !!!

You could put some smoke pellets (the sort you use for checking drains or smoking out vermin) in the ducts and rig up a camera to film the air movement as you corner............

I hope you're joking!
I could just imagine the scene. 'Well Officer, I crashed because the car was full of smoke...'

I really like your inventive turn of mind, but I think I would like to keep my car a little longer before they send me to the funny farm. However you have given me an idea !

How about fastening some small ribbons to the ducts. Yellow or green ? " Well officer , I crashed because the car was full of Green ribbons, knew I should have used Yellow" Now that would look good in his note book ! seriously it might work as long as I keep the length short .

Well OK, but I think the ribbons should be colour coordinated!

Know where I can get Mahogany coloured ribbons ?

Here?

Well its taken a while for the penny to drop. Its not the car its me ! I lean into the corner when travelling hard, that puts my face in line with the ducts. SIMPLES !!
Anyone follow the James May style and lean away from the corner ?

:lol:Kudos to you for admitting it, anyway!
