I've heard from people that the 4th gen has heat problems in that the engine is usually hotter than normal because the cooling fan constantly ticks on and off every 1 minute or so during idling.
Driving around, I've noticed lots of heat coming from under the the dash where the floor mats would be. On a normal day it would feel like I have heated seats or something like that.

Usually the only time the lude feels hot is when I'm low on oil. On these cars, especially when they get up past 150k in mileage, you need to CONSTANTLY check your oil. I'd check it every fillup, and once in between if you drive hard.
