Anyone notice their cooled seats not working that great?

The temperature coming out is DIRECTLY proportionate to your AC system. I've found they work best when my AC is set at 68 degrees, but then I am chilled out of my car. The warmer your AC blows out, the warmer the seats will blow, they are directly tied to the AC.
I took it to the dealer and had them check it, and they told me it was "functioning as designed" on the sheet I got back from them.![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I too notice the fan noise, a little annoying, but most of the time I have the stereo on anyway. The cooling is definitely better on the Lincoln MKZ, but I would take my IS over a Lincoln any day of the week!

I think Mercedes vented seats actually suck the air instead of blowing it.
It's really a worthless option on our cars. If Lexus stepped up and ran ducts from the A/C to the seats like Infiniti that would be heaven. Esp for us in Florida.

Infiniti offered cooled seats in the much more expensive M back then, not so much in the comparable-to-the-IS G.
The lack of any seat venting/cooling at all is one of the (several) reasons I didn't end up with a G.

I've always thought that the cooled seats made it feel like I was wetting my pants
Sometimes when my girlfriend falls asleep on a long drive, I crank up the cooler on her side and she wakes up thinking she had an accident

Yes I have sat in a car for over 3 hours with non-perforated leather seats and it's been no problem for me, but the humidity in California is relatively low.
