hey guys,

so, I'm finally having my first issue with my FiST.

1) this is the common one that it seems. Only today, first time, my hvac blower wasn't operating properly. The air seemed like it was blowing below the slowest setting. The temperature seemed about correct. This may be related to the blower freezing up or something. Although, I think I have the foam strips that is part of the fix for that...

2) This is the 3rd time it has happened. It seems to only happen when I get off work and it has been below 0 degrees F, if not below -10 degrees. When I press the lock/unlock button on the driver's side door handle, all but the driver door unlocks. Seemed very odd. Pressing the button again locks everything (no noise from driver's door). Pressing it again unlocks all but driver's door. Very odd.

so I guess Ill go visit my dealer on Monday and ask them to take a look. They probably wont be able to replicate the issues without keeping the girl overnight.

anyways, anyone else having similar issues or have any insight?

I know you probably understand this but throwing it out there anyway.....
if you have the HVAC set on "auto" the blower won't speed up until the engine temp is completely warm.

That way it does not blow cold air in the beginning. As the engine warms up the blower speeds up...

When I put mine on Auto in the cold, it blows out of the defroster. That's great to keep the windshield clear, but useless to warm the car. All that hot air turns cold when passing over the windshield, and then it blows the cold air in my face...

Gotta be sure all the other ventilation buttons are off...
