Opinions of rear air in D4

Hi, we have a d4 with rear air and find it a must for the kids when they sit in the third row seats. If you are only using the second row seats then standard air would be ok
Cheers

I made a phone call to Sniegy...

It went something like this:

"G'day Pete, I want a D4, Leather, eDiff, Rear Air, Xenons.... What have you got?"

Conversation ended with "I'll take it... Please get it tinted, chuck in some floor mats and throw on some mud flaps, be there Friday :cool: "

And the rest as they say is history...

I'm happy to always return to MLR after such exceptional service from Sniegy and his work mates...

I have a D3 with both. Rear air is for the dogs. The e-diff is much in demand in 2nd hand vehicles, and it is such a cheap option.

The driver also has the option to control the rear air from the front.
Would not do without it.

Hi Graig, our D4 has rear air, people in the second row seats don't seem to be able to operate/adjust it from the controls in the back, is there a trick too it.

To answer the OP, rear air cools the car down faster, it great on really hot days.

Hi Baz,
There is a button with 'R AUTO' on it to the bottom left of the centre 'AUTO AC' dial / button. Once this button is pressed, if the bottom light is on, the rear passengers have control and when the top light is showing, the front passengers have control.
I'm pretty sure that is how it works. It is in the handbook if you want to check.

Cheers, Craig

Push the rear air button a second time (in the front). You will see the light indicating the rear air is on - go off and a second light come on just slightly lower down (but almost in the same place). You can then control from the rear.

The first light/position is 'auto' and rear air operates automatically with the temp set/controlled by the driver and front passenger.

The second place as described. Rear passenger Can control from the rear air and the driver and front passenger have their own control.

Craig I believe it is the other way around. Baz, I figure a picture might make it easier:

Also, here's the topix link to the climate control section of the manual - might save you a trip to the car:)

Thanks guys, I'll try that this arvo:BigThumb:

We looked in the manual, couldn't find anything on the operation of it from the back seats.

Baz, the topix link above includes the instructions on how to use the rear controls (page 112).
