| Rear air con headliner vent = cold air neck blast |
|
Never tried this until today, perhaps someone has already discussed on the forum. Last few days here have been in the low 90's, very hot. Decided to turn the 2nd row headliner vent above me towards the front to see if it could deliver any cool relief. Sure enough, if rotated and adjusted forwards the 2nd row headliner vents can deliver a cool breeze at the top of your head or neck. Not a bad D3 trick 
Also, if you close the other vent and center console vents it increases the flow 16 D4 Landmark
