ventilation problem?!?!

310 Views 5 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  shiseido
Today I realized that the windshield ventilation (air conditioning) is hotter than the rest of the exits.
Has anyone tried putting their hand on the outlets next to their head (it comes out cold) and then using the same temperature (18 degrees for example) for the outlet next to the windshield and this one comes out hot (warm!)

Tested it out, seems to be working fine. I took a couple of test while driving on highway at 25C ambient and at 50km/h on local roads at 22C ambient and 12C ambient and the ventilation seemed to be the same regardless (concerning the warmth).
ok, thanks.
this can be donne with the car stoped, just need to change the exits to see the difference temperature even if the setting temp is the same.

The windshield air comes out hot because you are supposed to select "windshield" when you want to defog the windshield, and the best way to defog is to use warm air. So nothing wrong with that.

But in all my late cars (ok, in 30 years of driving some didnt have air conditioning) i could defog with warm temp but if i put 16º in the windshield position with ac, it was cold!
Never seen a car acting like the mx30, even with 15º it comes hot...
