In my 2023 mazda 6 works very well.
I agree it is terrible barely works on my third gen
Works perfect on my 3rd Gen
Mine has the Auto HVAC I just set the temp when I change it to heat it automatically changes to floor vents I love it. Gets toasty no problem
Mine works fine on my ‘14 CX5. Cooks my toes in the Midwest
Mine is phenomenal in my ‘19 M6. Only thing I hate is when it is on floor and cabin, the floor blows harder
Melts the rubber off your shoes in the Miata.
Same in my NC! Driving with the roof down last night around 2°C and had to change it off my feet because they were far too hot!
You’re made of tough stuff! I’m not sure I’m brave enough to drive around top down when it’s this cold. 😉
I don’t think my girlfriend particularly appreciates it but I think it’s great! I even gave her my hat and scarf and did an hour drive at 80mph with a freezing cold head! I do love the cold though which I think helps a lot!
My cx9 has one of the most powerful floor vents I’ve experienced.
Liquefies my loafers in my 3 🔥
Roasts my toes in my 2!
Are your floor mats blocking the duct?
I can barely feel it in my MX-30. I’ll be all warm and cozy while driving in the Icelandic winter breeze while I feel like my toes are gonna fall off if I hit the pedal a bit too hard
Takes a bit of time to kick in on my 21 6 but once it does it works fine. My only issue is the buzzy fuel injectors on the turbo when it’s below 0 in the winter. The car itself still warms up way faster than my parents’ CRV!
On my CX9 works pretty well. I guess it’s dependent on model
Works well on my ‘23 CX 5 once the coolant gets up to temp. The automatic setting might run the fan a little too strongly as the car engine comes up to temperature. I have an attached garage which may be 15 degrees warmer than outside temps. So I got in the car today and the outdoor temp sensor showed 54. Outdoor air temperature is 42. So as I left the house the fan is running a little too fast and actually is cooling the car down. Once the out door temp sensor cools down I’ll notice the fan will decrease and eventually ramp up as coolant temperatures hit around 130 F or so. Like most cars I have driven in cold weather, the heating system starts the vents in the defrost position until the engine warms. As engine temps go up it then goes to floor and dash vents, and with a little more driving it goes to floor. So feet heating in the auto position is a little shaky regarding fan speed and airflow outlets while the engine warms up.
Check your cabin air filter
Works on every car I’ve ever owned.
