Default Wish there was an "LPS" setting for "Dual" A/C Mode

Yep, I sure do.

Since I rarely have passengers, I hate having the extra step to click on the climate, then unclick "dual", then set the temp that I want. I want it to default to non-dual mode, and then if the passenger side temp is adjusted, it automatically enters dual mode. Maybe reset when the car is shut off for an extended period?

I guess it could be a problem for some, but I know my friends A4 does something similar, and its convenient.

Ok, back to worring about real problems.

Mine works the way its supposed to also. But after I pick someone up say, for the night, they change the temp on their side. I drop them off later.

Then, the next morning I'm by myself. I start the car, and I want it to be in single mode, not 68 degrees on my side and 90 on the passenger side. It is this part which I don't like. Then, I have to make 3 extra clicks to turn it off. Blah. 3 WHOLE CLICKS people

Don't let them touch the temperature buttons. Problem solved.

There are a bunch of personalisations available for the Climate Control. You ought to sit down with your service manager and have him/her bring up TIS, go to the air conditioning manual, page AC-27. It shows all these options. There may be more, I haven't searched for all of them.
