Rear vents blowing cold air...

Given that there are no dedicated temp controls for the rear vents, I assumed that the air coming out the back would simply be a product of the front settings. However, this does not seem to be the case as only cold air comes out despite the front being set to 24C. Am i missing something??

Thanks

Noticed that myself since I have mine set to 73F. I noticed that heat was coming from underneath the front seats

RE: Rear vents blowing cold air...

Noticed the same thing with my car this morning??

So are you saying that if you want it to be warm in the back you just keep the vents closed as the heat comes from beneath the front seats? and we just open the vents when cool air is required? I presumed that the vents would blow the same temperature air as the vents in the front of the car?

My car is due into the dealer on Tuesday so I will ask them what is 'normal' when it goes in....

The rear vents are an option over here (yep something else that should be standard), glad I did not waste the money by the sounds of it.

Yes, the answer was they only blow cold air, so keep them closed in winter and open in summer Shocked
