Things to consider when _____ing about the a/c.

One, you have a TON of glass in that vehicle, which, by nature, isn't exactly heat-reflective. You also have a black interior, with about 4 miles of dashboard that's not exactly cool in the summertime either. You want to know why your a/c sucks, that's probably a BIG part of it. I don't think the a/c cools any better or worse than any other car out there, it's just having to overcome a deficit before you even get in the car.

Like I said before, we all know the a/c sucks. Accept it and move on. I did, added tint and a remote start alarm that gets the a/c cranking long before I get in the car. Low and behold, it's better now.

BINGO...and i bet 90% of the people complaining about the a/c leave their sunroof covers open during the day. i did that once and my tC was about 200 degrees inside...so hot that my peanut butter sandwhich turned into a peanut liquid sandwich. the air coming out is cool...you just have a superheated cockpit. you have to roll the windows down and air the car out

so my case in point, if your complaining.... complain right
I did a comparison between IS300's and tC's A/C, and you know what? tC's took forever to cool down the cabin, IS300's took only a couple seconds.
It had the same outside temp.
If you still think tC's A/C is not weak, you can try it yourself.
There is no point to debate with an ignorant person like you.

note: I didn't use climate control to cool down the cabin on the IS300.

hey moron, can you read?

i said the a/c is not weak, its normal toyota the a/c coming out of the vents is cool

the cabin might take longer than other cars to cool down but the a/c is not weak

the blower motor goes bad on the echos which is bascially what the xa and xb are

toyota knows about this problem so maybe you should check to see if the xA and xB are affected

pvt joker is right and thats what i tried to explain but i noticed people LOVE to _____ these days, they will cry about anything and everything without understanding

oh well

How old are you Cybergypsy, cause all your doing is bragging. Yes we know you have money, yes we know you have lots of cars. Your just eggin them on to keep makin more comments towards you.

My a/c works just fine. Sorry you hate everything about the tC. But everyone has heard that over and over from you...we know you dont like it. Enjoy your elise, if i had the money i'd have one too. But please, be the bigger person here and stop eggin everyone on!
