How is the Heater/AC?
To me the quality of the heater/AC does a lot to make a car enjoyable or annoying. How would you rate the one in the RL? Points I'd consider:
- pollen filter (should look this up, I know)
- heat available before engine warmup
- variable drag AC (my S4 has this. I'm pretty sure it's common on all high end cars now)
- can turn AC off and go to heat/ventilation mode which is still automatic
- can work in C and F
- can deal with differences in engine temp (S4 seems to blow colder air after about 15 minutes)
- ease of use
I guess the less you have to fiddle with the system the better.
Thanks!

I don't notice it. I guess that makes it really good.
I always use AUTO mode. Pretty much set it and forget it. (That's some cheesy product's slogan)
I usually set the temp to 71 degrees (on my side). It gets warm fast in the 55 degree cool mornings and it cools off quickly in the 85 degree hot afternoons.
