Warm air
« on: 02 August 2010, 21:23:30 »

Does anybody have a clue why the air coming out of the vents is tepid?  climate control seems to work fine but when adjusting it to LO on the dash without A\C on it just reduces it to a warm temp.

Ahh, Yeah ok understand now. Well i imagine its working fine cause as i increase the temp setting in the car the air temp increases significantly. Does this valve only control the water flowing through the matrix? cause as i disconnect the vac line from the top i hear a fan sound come on over by the cabin panel filter and ceasing when i put the line back on.

With A/C off temp of "cold" air will be relative to outside ambient temp

It's been a warm Summer so the ambient air being drawn in will be warm!
