For those of you that live in hot climate areas and need to a/c when driving

What kind of settings do you use?


I usually have mine on 76 with 2 bars, or 3 if I just get in the car after it's been sitting in the sun. Then switch it back to two.

i like to go windows down alot, but when it gets to hot/humid i put the a/c on 60 when i first get in, then spin it up to 75-77 when its cooled down enough....always in auto climate mode.

I point the vents upward and usually run the ac at it's coolest and highest setting for a few minutes, then turn down to 2 or 3 bars.

I'm either running with the roof and windows open, or I have the climate control set to Auto and 70 degrees. Anything lower than that and I'd need medical attention for frostbite.

Most of the time it's on 70 and 2 bars unless it's been in the sun and then I crank her up

Auto freezes you out in a few minutes. I keep it around 70 with 2-3 bars once the car cools off. Full at first.

i run mine ice cold till the car's cool but once cool, i run in the 72 to 75 range and one or two bars. but... i find once the car's cool, i like for the the vents to be both head and feet, rather than just head.... if I open the windows doors and still want a little cool air, or have rear passengers, then I'll throw it back on head.

Yeah, I also sweat like a mother****8er. What sucks is that even if I have it so high, my back gets all sweaty. I wish the G had ventilated seats.
