Still doesn't help in my case. This is my first subie where this has been an issue.
When it was much cooler, no problem. I normally wanted some warmer air anyway even if I wasn't running the heat. Now, though, it gets annoying. Usually I have to run the temp up to just about where ambient is (set HVAC to auto, and roll the temp up till the fans drop to a low fan speed) and hit the A/C and recirc. If I have the windows down, I hit recirc and turn a/c off and drop the temps down. Still end up with way warmer air than what is coming in through the windows.
I think it's b/c our engine bay runs hotter than normal anyway, so wherever the cabin air is being pumped in from fresh (or even near the firewall), is where it gets heated up more than normal.
I bet if one is able to ventilate a good bit of the normal bay heat, the issue will decrease.
