Sudden Cool Air

[harrylime]

I was out in the car yesterday and suddenly started to get cool air through the vents rather than warm. I had to turn the temp to the late 20s to get warm air through. The force of the air vents also seemed to increase at the same time as it cooled. Does anyone have any ideas please?

Bring up the climate screen and check your settings also check weather you had the front screen demister switch on .

Clean the interior temperature sensor located on the drivers side lower centre console, they get clogged with dust and provide false readings to the CC ECU.

Thanks chaps, I'll check those - any more suggestions?

the front screen demister was not on. I haven't checked the sensor yet, but the coolant is on the low line, although there does not seem to be much between low and high

Coolant level seems to be critical on these engines,top it up and see.
