Re: Dual-Zone Climate Control

still a little confused here... on full-auto mode i don't think the direction has ever changed from blowing downwards - is this the same with everyone?
 
Re: Dual-Zone Climate Control

Now you mention it, it does tend to stick to downwards, but kind of makes sense if it is trying to regulate cabin temperature.

Mine does that in the winter and it blows air upwards in the summer time.
But that makes sense to me, as in the winter it's heating up the cabin and hot air is lighter than cold air and therefore rises upwards, while in the summertime it trying to cool the cabin and thus is blowing cold air in from the top (as it's heavier than hot air and is falling down).

Hope that makes sense :D
 
Re: Dual-Zone Climate Control

Well what a nightmare that was glad i havnt got it think il go and buy a pedaly bike :( :D
 
:confused: if i wasn't confused before Reading this thread i am now LOL..

just got myself a 2004 stilo estate & after reading the book & this thread i still cant understand why the air-con kicks in when on full auto even in this weather... i thought the air-con was to keep the car cool, so why have it running in temps reaching -10 that we having now...?????

i just keep mine on MONO & set the temp to high in this weather...

also the other reason why ive been searching about the heater is this....

when running around the temp goes up to half & heater is nice & warm.. but when im stood ticking over waiting for the wife to come out of work i can be there for around 20 mins some days on tick over & by the time she's coming out the temp has dropped right back down to cold & the heater is also blowing cold.... ???? Ive never had this with any car in the past.. when stood the temp has always remained at half or just below & heater blowing warm....

how come this starts to blow cold..? is it a problem with mine or are they all the same..? as this is putting me right off the car... other than that its great...

(y)(n)

thanks for any reply..
 
The air con isn't just there to cool you down in Summer. It aslo dehumidifies the air in the car, so is excellent for keeping the inside of the windows clear in Winter.
 
My climate control display has completley turned off and will not turn on. Does anyone know how to fix this struggling to find a thread online about it.
