I say no. They are tireless dont breath made of metal wood and leather

Well, the (al)chemical processes that keep them moving may well generate some heat, and there would be friction associated with the contraction of wood "muscles". And they are big, and would not lose that heat quickly. I always got the impression that the metal was a shell/armor (as opposed to penetrating to the interior), so I am not sure that would help. I bet when they are active they generate quite a bit of heat.

Warforged are living constructs. That wood isn't inert; it's alive, which is why they can respond to healing spells. They may not produce the same amount of body heat as a human, but yes, I certainly think they produce body heat.
