This is the only acceptable way to do climate control.

My car has some sort of blend dial on the vents that changes the amount of air brought in from the engine vs the amount of air brought in from outside.

This.

Toes get cold but god damn I can't stand turning on the heater otherwise because I get hot as fuck.

What sounds like something a personal would say.

Considering that's in fahrenheit and I live in the US, you're right, no one is ever going to mention 'Celsius' in my car

15c is basically the perfect temperature though

>dealing with this sack of shit
extra hilarious since they went to dials in the e90 which i like a lot. digital readout of temperature but an actual dial for changing it

but no, e39? fucking clicky shit
it doesn't even respond that fast, i have to baby it and press it slowly to go down

just give me knobs as inputs and digital readouts as outputs and i'm fine

2 Zone AC > OPs crap from 1912

Two easy knobs, one left one right to adjust the temp in each of the zones, a few buttons to change where air goes, thats it

Calling it easy doesn't make it easy. Most people are probably gaming the thermostats rather than setting their actual temperature preference. Who the fuck is autistic enough to a preferred temperature?

I hate the air conditioning in my focus so much
it has + and - buttons for temperature and intensity
if you want to go from 18°C and lowest intensity to high temperature with full intensity it takes maybe 20 seconds because those buttons change the value so slowly
constellations like in OP's pic are much better, just turn two knobs to the right and you're done

Only thing I dont like about this is every time I do anything, change temp by 1 degree, change fan intensity, etc. it beeps. annoying, high pitched, can't figure out how to stop it.
Want it five degrees warmer? EEP EEP EEP EEP EEP
oh you pushed it too fast so it only went up 4 degrees but it beeped five times anyway gonna have to hit it once more EEP.

>get in car in winter
>turn it to 90 degrees

>get in car in summer
>turn it to 60 degrees

Juggle it around and eventually wind up at 68-72 degrees

Thank god for climate control...so much easier than:

>get in car in winter
>Max hot

>get in car in summer
>Max cold

Juggle it around and eventually wind up at some random red/blue setting
>>
>>14188838
This guy gets it

>>14191449
68 in the winter, 72 in the summer. It's not autism, plenty of people like temp control. Once you set a temp, regardless of temp changes outside, it keeps cabin temp consistent. Automatic temp control also won't blast the fan in the winter until the engine is actually able to provide warm air.
>>
>>14191519
Changing a thermostat to 90F in the winter or 60F in summer will not cause it to heat or cool the car any quicker. It will cause it to run longer, to try to achieve the target temperature, but it won't make it any hotter or colder any faster.

Summer; nearly as cold as it gets/as cold as it gets depending on how warm it is outside. Front vents and legs.
Winter; full heat until the cabin has warmed up properly, then about halfway onto the blue. Front vents & windshield until the cabin is warm, then front vents and legs

Shit picture, but you get the idea
