Re: Contentious Issues

That sounds like the very basic Aircon. The climate control versions have the different controls. Incidentally, with the touch controls, you do not need to slide over the temperature controls. Just tapping the hot or cold controls will change the temperature.

Re: Hard to believe mpg

Re: Hard to believe mpg
