disable auto a/c

ShinyBlueZ · 06-01-2012, 07:37 PM

I'm actually pretty ignorant about certain things like this when it comes to cars myself.. I'm curious to know who's actually right here.

25+ hp just to run a little air conditioner sounds excessively high.. but at the same time in my hatchback Civic (and other 4-bangers I've owned) I often turned the A/C off when merging onto the highway since it ate a really noticeable chunk of my acceleration away. I don't think 3hp off of 127 would affect it that much.

No need to start flaming each other though.. just have a cool discussion about it lol We all drive Z's so we're extra cool people here!

Oh and from reading the owner's manual + the service manual.. there doesn't seem to be any sort of hidden button sequence to change the default A/C settings like you're asking. I wish there was too.. it actually bugs me pretty often as well
