Does anyone else have issues with the amount of airflow when on the head/feet position? I've noticed it as an issue when I got the car 2 years ago, but never thought much of it until this summer when it's exhaustively hot. I generally like the air on the head/feet position since my feet/legs get hot too, but when I do this, not much air flow comes out the head vents, even on HI. I've changed the cabin air filter twice since ownership and that didn't help at all.

Would love to hear if I'm the only one with this issue. I do know on the RX300 it's a similar situation, but not as bad as my GS. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

 

Head only is stronger in my GS than head/feet.

 

This happens in my GS also but I always thought it was something that happened in most cars. More pathways for the air to exit, less pressure, I guess.

 

I realize the head only is stronger...
In all my other vehicles (Lexus and other), it blows just as strong on head/feet as it does head only. It's only something I've noticed on the RX and GS. Again, more so on the GS.

 

i know mine has issues similar to this as well as a few others due to problems with the actuators. they control the temp and flow direction as well and from what ive found researching, go bad pretty frequently on these cars (not too much of a knock for a 20 year old car) you might need to replace them or ive also seen people have success just cleaning the contact points. do you have the robot dance party sounds in your dash? every now and then kinda center slightly behind gauge cluster.

 

No current issues with the servos. I've dealt with them in the past on the RX.

 

I make sure my rear vents are closed. What type of cabin filter are you running? The standard cabin filter flows good but I used to have a thick carbon cabin filter that was very poor when it came to flow.
