I like the air-con on my feet and the windows open.  Can't beat a bit of breeze through lovely golden locks!  :-*

I was camping on the banks of Lake Corpus Christi in Southern Texas this weekend and could only wish for AC in my tent as not only did the mercury hit 38 degrees but the climate here is very humid as well.  So I was sweating out the beer as quickly as I was drinking it!   :o  :)

My aircon is working perfectly, thanks. It's currently most likely a fridge in China, or something, as it got weighed in some time 7 years ago before I bought the car  :)

Air con's on the jobs list this summer...until then I'll open a window. I'm sure the black interior, and black leather in a black car won't be hot at all.  :D

Scorchio  :D ;D


Its nice to have a/c and working to full strength , nothing worse than sitting in traffic with the blowers blowing warm air at you with broken a/c  :( Guess you could open the sunroof and get a burnt head  ;D

Sounds like a tough job, but I guess somebody has to do it! :D :D :D :D

I saw 34C temp on the outside temp sensor on my Octavia today  :o Tho it may have been influenced (as many other car temp sensors are) by the heat coming from the engine bay...

But, at home now, one of the outside temp sensors is reading 29.5,c t'other 29C   :o (both on north facing walls in the shade)

Inside temp is 24C from both sensors.....think its going to be a muggy night  :(

My temp sensor gave me 40 degrees after I parked in the sun today. Dropped to 28 after I'd driven it about a mile. Still very hot today though.

Had to attend a meeting in Hounslow today adjacent to Heathrow. :(

Car parked in full sun and when returned around 2.00pm to drive home outside temp registered 38.5c :o and even driving back home on M4/M25/M20 didnt drop below 28.5c so glad A/C gives steady vent temp on full chat of 5c  8)so a very pleasant place to be despite usual chaos on motorways down Sarf :(

It's never worked on mine since I bought it,and as I'm not going to chuck money at it to make it do so,it never will while I own it.

The Omega does seem to be very warm in the cabin even on a milder day , it definitely needs air con to make it a nice place to be in like you say  :y
I noted the air con got cooler at the vents when driving  ???
