As someone else has mentioned, it is also possible that during hard acceleration, the hot air damper opens slightly (defect) and lets unwanted hot air into the cabin. You should definitely take it to another dealership to have it checked out. |

Keep in mind also, that at least in my experience the AC does not blow as cold on these cars at idle as it will when moving. I've been in 3 twins now, 2 of my own and 1 other persons car that all do the same thing. It gets cold at idle, but gets REALLY cold when cruising.

I have noticed this with my 10 series, as well. Where I live (Northern Cali) it can get pretty hot so that's definitely playing a factor. But it takes a bit long to get somewhat cold. Like Shady said, it gets cold when cruising but for me, I think it would take a while to get cold while idle. Just blows warm air for a while. Doesn't seem normal.
