Get a windscreen shade. It'll make all the difference -- If the dash is hot, the cold air isn't as cold when it comes through the vents.

Drove Brisbane to Sunshine Coast again today. Got 5.7l/100km average fuel consumption and that was with cruise set to 120 in 100 and 130 in 110 zones ...... (So taking 10km/h overread into consideration just over the limit

)

Who said diesels are so fuel efficient .... bet you the trip cost me less than what a TDI would have cost .... and I could ride that petrol turbo power wave every now and then to overtake ....

I complained about it too and they re-gassed it, saying that there was too much gas and they put in the correct amount of 575g. It helped a bit but in 40deg heat it still struggles.

apparently the compressor is broken but they didnt have the part.

wasnt happy...but got it all sorted very nicely
