Hey guys.
I've been driving to work ( Center City in Philly) for the past week and my AC was working fine. After like 10 min, I had to slow down fan cause was getting realy cold (during afternoon drive to home). However, yesterday it felt like AC was barley doing anything. So, for all folks driving in hot places, do you have same problem? Or is it my AC going down....

 

The A/C in my TL kicks butt in the heat!

 

If it is really hot, make sure when you turn on the AC also press the circulation button to off mode. That will set only cold air to blow out of your vents.

 

You mean make ac take the cabin air?

 

I live in MS and it's been really hot here this summer. I keep my full auto on 62 and the system blows snowballs. You may need to adjust the temp, however you didn't mention where you have yours set.

 

Just to clarify,the temp is set to 65 or 60. I'm getting frash air from outside (recerculation is off). Back vents closed. That's the set up I use all the time. Still, the AC does not blow snowballs as it did on day ago.... hmm maybe it's me being anal about the whole thing.

 

I set mine on 72 and it's cool enough all the time and heck...I live in TEXAS! I put mine on vent most of the time, and switch when there's nast car fumes in front of me.

 

****, that means that my AC is going down... damn!!

 

No problem with my A/C its hot here in D.C. to pouring down rain now. I run my A/C most of the time except late fall & winter. This is my 2nd summer with the car & I run A/C 100% of the time.
Keep us posted on the problem with yours.

 

I'm going to check it today after work. If the problem will be there, i'm stopping by dealer tomorrow. Ohh yeah, it's pouring backets here too. no umbrella.

 

I will test my AC today and decide if to go to dear. Will post about it later.

 

Depending on the humidity of the air being pulled
from outside, you may just need to switch to recirculate. Even with mine on full auto and 62 degrees it stays mostly on recirculation, but on long trips it auto switches to fresh when it is cold enuff inside the car and switches back to recirculation if it gets to warm. You sound as if
you have your system on manual where you control fan speed and vent flow as well as fresh/recir. See if just recirl will help you.

 

My Air was working fine last night. Then I tried to use it this morning for defrost and it did not kick in. Nor did it start when I hit the Auto button. I usually keep my unit on auto around 65 to 72. Now I guess I am gonna have to get to the dealer some how.

Oh yeah and when I got off work on Friday...The Temp Guage showed 104...Monday is going to SUCK!!
