AC not getting cold?
 
Hey guys,

I recently purchased a CPO with 5k miles and I noticed that the AC doesn't work that well. It works but it doesn't vent our freezing cold air or extremely cold in general. When i'm driving the car when its 90+ outside i'm sweating a little in the car even though I'm on max cold and blasting the AC! Is this going to be an expensive fix? Would warranty cover it? Or just a common thing with Z's?

AC on these cars is weak. You need to have it blow on you on the really hot days. Point the passenger side at you too.

I live in Tucson, Az where we have had 7 days of 105 degree or higher heat in a row and my AC on my 2009 Z keeps me plenty cool.
So i disagree that the AC is bad in our cars.

104 here yesterday and my 2009 Z was nice and cool. Sounds like you may have a freon leak. If so, repair cost are dependent on the cause of the problem.

I think the Z has a great AC.

May need to be calibrated. Looks like you can tweak the ac output vs vent temp with the Oem scan tool. It's in the service manual.

Doesn't sound right. My A\C gets ice cold almost as soon as I turn it on.
