I set the temp dial to about 80-85*f and it was NOT blowing warm air...it was probably blowing around 70ish. But crank it the extra 5 degrees to 90 and it blows super hot.
Just have to learn the quirks it seems. It's like getting a new girlfriend...  |
You have to remember that with A/C, the air coming through the coils doesn't get set to your preset temperature. The A/C's goal is to bring your cabin temperature to the setting you desire, not to blow air out the vents at the setting you desire. These are very different things. If you just set the temperature you actually want the cabin to feel like (without relying on the actual direct airflow being pointed at your face/arms), and roll the windows up, it will get the cabin to that temperature pretty efficiently.
