Is it just my Stilo or do all Stilos have appalling air ventilation systems. I opened up the front dashboard vents and put the blower on No. 3 yesterday and I could hardly feel any air coming out of them at all.

Bit concerning considering I live in Southern Spain and a very hot summer is coming up soon.

Anyone else found this problem? If so, does anyone know of a way of improving things a bit, or even a lot?

Thanks

Check, and if necessary, change the pollen filter.

mine is still rubbish after changing the pollen filter but the air con will cope if it has been recharged

you've not got it set to blow on the windscreen have you?

Mines fine, more than adiqaute, manual AC

Remove the pollen filter. I tried changing mine, made no difference. But removing it lets all the airflow through.

It's not the last word in efficency - fan speed 2 on my Stilo achieves about the same as speed 1 would on any other car i've used & not having the fan on is never an option as the air is ridiculously minimal without it, even with a new pollen filter. However, it sounds like yours is worse than mine, which may indicate a blocked pipe or clogged filter.

When block / damage the AC system if AC is fitted

Thanks for all the replies. Seems like it isn´t just mine that is a bit naff. To answer one question, no I don´t have the blower blowing onto the windscreen it is set to blow onto me. Ha!

Thanks for the advice about changing the pollen filter, I will have to give that a try.

Where about is it?

Thanks
