Cold draft when turning sharply...!? (Boxster 981)
Discussion
Happens in most vehicles; I noticed it more in my van on cold days - swing off a dually round a sweeping exit and the the interior goes cold - assumed it's just air being centrifugally moved about (scientific description?!) same with the smell of fuel from the bikes in the back - no leaks but the same effect; the fuel vapours around the bike are moved around into the cabin like the cold air........

wondering if anyone else has experienced a cold draft when turning!?!?!
Yes. I think there must be flaps in the A/C system which divert air to mix warm/cool airstreams and give the precise temperature for the climate control system. When you turn a corner the forces on the flaps are enough to make them move a bit and cause the effect you mention.In one of my cars if the fans are running quite quickly you can even hear a change in note at the same time.
