I'm a little skeptical about that one, Dave. Sounds thermodynamically impossible.  If the motor isn't running, where is this heat coming from? None is being generated, so the temperature can only go down.  It is possible that the *compartment* could get hotter when the car isn't *moving*, but I don't see any mechanism by which the engine running or not would matter in a D.   Now, an engine with a mechanical fan might be another matter...

Am I missing something?
