[QUOTE="alxy, post: 403463, member: 2947"] To be honest, I don't know exactly what worked. When you have the kids & wife in a hot car on a hot day with heavy traffic you don't exactly think of analyzing what you're doing. Anything goes as long just to get things back to normal :o Basically fiddled with all the settings in the iDrive Climate control menu. Changed program to soft, to medium, to intensive several times. Changed the blower distribution (head, body, legs) several times, switched off air cond for 5 minutes, etc etc.. In the end, what worked was I just pressed the "MAX" button. Air still seemed stuck initially but after a few seconds luckily came back to normal. But it could have been a combination of what I was doing earlier so I don't think that's the real solution. But looks like your problem is worse since it's happening more frequently. Mine happened that one time and (touch wood!) hasn't come back since. So I guess have to wait for you to let us know what the final solution is. For me, if it doesn't come back, then will just wait until next service before checking it out. Good luck bro! [/QUOTE]
