Default Anyone experience this?

My car always feels warm inside. Even on a cool day, it gets kind of warm eventhough the heat is not on. The vent spews warm air even on a cool day. My heater is not on and i set the temp to 75 degrees, so i don't quite know why. It just seems warmer than i expected. My interior is dark w/no leather. I have to use A/C all the time. I do live in Houston,Texas. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Make sure that you have the recycle air (circulating arrow) button pressed and the light is on for that. If the light for the recycle air is not on then air from outside combined with the temperature setting will enter your car.

Try setting the temp to 2-3 clicks above 60. This seems to work for me. If I put it on 75, I find it too warm.

I'm not sure you are talking about the same thing, but I have a 5AT and after a little driving the center console heats up, particularily the plastic above the automatic shifter and next to the passenger's left leg. I don't know if this is a problem but the engine temp guage is normal and the car drives great. Please let me know if anyone thinks this is abnormal and should be looked at.

My airconditioner went out and Nissan is still waiting for the part to be delivered. It was 60 degrees outside and I had to drive with the windows down to keep the temp comfortable. I think what it is is with the engine is set back farther in the car and closer to the driver (the FM platform that gives such good balance to the car) and the exhaust pipes and engine are really close to the to the ventelation system so it works almost like a heater. I think this is why the A/C button is on all the time untill you shut it off,

Quite a few of the Infiniti G35 Sedans are having the same problem, warm air always blowing out of the vents, even on cooler days. Some say it clears out after a minute or two and others say it blows warm all the time.

I experienced it the other day as well, when it cooled of around here and was rather nice I tried to ride with the windows down but couldn't it was hot as hell in the car, and I would cool of when I walked away from the car. It was wierd, I would be cool until I would drive off then I had to turn the AC on.

I have also experienced the hot center console and stick shift. This car should be great for the winter time!!
