Thank you. I'll check it out.

Maybe you're not aware:

The rear HVAC turns on/off depending on if the rear side doors are opened or not first.

If you have it in ECO Mode the light is always on. When in Normal Mode if you are driving conservatively the ECO symbol lights up. BUT you can turn that off in the settings so it never lights up.

I don’t change any of the settings - it does this crap all by itself!

Yes, Its automatic, based on which doors are opened when you get in. If any of the rear doors open then the rear vents are activated.

you can turn off the smart flow if you don't like it. Its in your owners manual.

Default Permanently disable rear A/C cutoff toggle

Does anyone have any experience with climate control settings automatically turning off the rear A/C? I have a 2018 RX350 F-Sport for context. Every time I start the car without any passengers the toggle to turn off the rear vents is activated, is there a way to permanently disable this from happening?

When this toggle is on it limits airflow of the A/C in the front. You would think by turning off the rear vents there would be more air, but no it limits it.

Default Why the Air blower switches from the vents upfront to the feet

How do you prevent the AC blower to blow air at your feet while driving?... I set the air blower for the front but it switches after a few minutes to feet..
