    My ac sucks at idle too. Even with the added electric pusher fan and modified fan clutch.

    Adding Another pusher most likely

    So toyota just adds a pusher fan that clicks on when the compressor is running... why is it just the 2015's?

    no air flow across condenser means no cooling

    this has been an issue with all fan clutch only vehicles

    you could put together a fan / relay setup for far cheaper than the toyota parts that you still have to modify to fit.

    My guess is its because its 2018, and they only considering it for the factory 36 month warranty, so 2015 would be the earliest covered by it. Just a guess though.

    With todays social media, whiners and companies trying to make them selves look good, you might be on to some thing.

    I have had this issue with all of my vehicles that have a fan clutch
