Post cabin sounds

Hey. Newbie here.

Inside the cabin of my car I can hear "water" rushing. Is this oil or what?

Also. Last night wife fastened her seatbelt and it was warm. Normal?

TIA.

The water sound is oil flowing to the auxiliarly cooler located in the front passenger fender. Can't say why the seat belt was warm.

The seat belt is warm because it rolls up inside the fender area right next to the oil tank. The oil in the tank gets very warm and heats that rolled up belt.

There is no oil tank on the drivers side so your belt does not get warm.
