Anyone have experience with the 4.8 GRX's CC? On my Pathy and Xtrail they work VERY well much better than our D3, how's the Patrol compare?
ie on the PAthy I leave it on 23 winter or summer.
Xtrail 25 and hardly EVER adjust it.
D3 on 22 and we go up to 25 and down to 20 continually.
Patrol similar to which?

Re: Climate control
I am not sure how different the climate control is on the newer 4.8 Patrols, but on my old 4.5 GRX I do find that I have to fiddle with the temperature settings quite a bit to remain comfortable under different conditions...

Re: Climate control
Same here - I leave mine on +-23 degrees with the CC on. No problem.
Only if the CC is off then I turn the temp to the minimum otherwise it gets a bit warm

Re: Climate control
Thanks so it seems that the Patrol is sorted CC wise, even on our old 330D Bmw we had to constantly adjust - defeats the point of CC.
