Hi all ,
Recently taken delivery of my GR and absolutely love it .

One early observation is that with the aircon on full blast is great but seems to tail off a bit past 55/60mph then comes back on full blast when I decrease speed .

It's not the biggest issue so just wondering if it's a general thing others have experienced?

Does the fan speed physically slow down, or does the air just stop blowing ice-cold?

Does it happen only during hard acceleration, or even while stably cruising at high speed?

Tks for the reply .

The aircon still works and isn't affected under hard acceleration. It literally is when the car gets past 60ish MPH it blows lighter . Once back below 60ish it speeds up again .

This sounds like Speed-Sensitive Ram Air Compensation. It is a standard design feature rather than a defect. If you switch to recirculation mode, it will stop happening.

Amazing thank you .

I need to spend a little more time reading the manual I think .

Took me a little while to find the fuel flap release button !

Thanks again
