    Mine is usually twice as bad as yours when I replace it. It's weird that you're having issues with your A/C performance. I wonder if it's a Dual Cab thing or maybe your compressor is becoming less efficient or your system is developing flow issues.

    I’m not 100% sure I had the ac system checked about 2 months ago I was told it’s fine, I do it yearly. I may have just got used to the VWs AC it’s ridiculous and being a wuss.

    Could be. Some of those newer European vehicles use additional technology to make the A/C better.

    Probably I’ve rode in a lot of cars this is probably the 2nd best system I’ve ever experienced.

    Higher rpm’s help the a/c blow cold. Stop and go traffic sucks for any vehicle.

    Most specify that as long as vent exit temps are 40 degrees below ambient, then it's in spec. This past week would be around 60-65 degrees at the vents. That can translate to 70-80 in the cab.

    Unacceptable for my pampered chef having ass. I did find the same E-fan setup Kurt has with a promo code for sub 300. I’m seriously considering it everything I’ve read says the ac performs significantly better I could careless about any hypothetical mpg gain.

    A push fan in front of the radiator will definitely help. It might drop it another 5-10 degrees at idle.
