How cold is your air con?
Mines not great in my opinion. I do know modern cars are sometimes less cold due to economy, but interested in what others think. Is your cold, tepid or freezing?
Re: How cold is your air con?
So so really i wouldn't say it is as cold as some cars i have driven but it is colder than outside. I have climatronic the one with the digital display so it keeps the temp at what i set it to.

I have climate too ... Just seems poor. Maybe a hot day will convince me.

Compared with some other cars I've had it isn't the best by some margin. The Lexus I had could freeze my nuts off!

Re: How cold is your air con?
Air con guy who serviced my other car last week gave an obvious tip that i hadnt been doing. Drive off and open all the windows to blow the hot air out before turning air on. Obvious i know ... I hadn't been dong it though.mozzapologti wrote:mines quiet cold think its look of the draw lol was much better than my old car so cant complain although when car is hot takes ages for it to cool whole car down before you feel benefit

Re: How cold is your air con?
Better than it overheating though! If I leave my iPod in the car when it's warm I have to disconnect it for a couple of mins until it cools down before it will work.WatchcamGTI wrote: It is a handy feature - not sure it will do my ipod any good in there though
