The ventilated seats pick up air from under the seat and percolate it through the
seat to...your seat. The HVAC "Auto"matic setting directs warm air to the floor in the
winter and cooled air to the dash vents in the summer. A very effective hack to improve
the seat cooling is to tap the HVAC "Mode" button just once, this will change the flow from
just dash vents to dash and floor. The Auto light will go off but it is still set your temp(s).
Now you will feels cool air on your feet and your seat.

Hi i Always set My ac to blown cold air into my feets - floor. + dash the thing which o try to explain is FAN which is inside the seat doesnt have enought Power so i dont feel at all the fan which is in my seat... its probably blocked by dust or something else... not sure if this can be fixed by compressed air or something, yesterday i was in Lexus nx suv and seat ventilation worked way better car was year 2017 .
I preffer manially to control my ac. I dont keep it at auto and i also doesnt use s flow i set fan speed at max and temp to 17 degrees or lowest possible
and. To blown from vents and floor, but seat fan is never powerfull enought so i dont feel any air even if i use extremely thin clothes for summer

When vacuuming my car I always vacuum the perforations on the seat especially in areas where the fans blow, even if there’s not visible debris trapped in the holes, dust will collect in there and over time make the ventilation less noticeable.

I've felt the same way, starting when I had my '14 and now with my '18. My wifes '18 TL A Spec is a lot more noticeable.

There was someone who 3d printed an add-on that guided air to the seats more effectively... maybe it was for IS but was also compatible with GS...

The main issue is my fans which are into the seats doesnt have debits...
but mod looks nice, is there a way to increase speed of the fans or to install higher speed fans from laptop computer or something ?
