Cold air blowing while heat set to 80
Has anyone else had an issue with their 2022 X3 blowing cold air while heat is set? I notice hot air blows initially and then it cycles to cold air for a few minutes then cycles back to hot air. I haven't noticed if it only does it while I'm at a light and the engine is off but is this normal? Or is this something to do with climate control and keeping the internal temperature at 80 and when it gets too hot, it'll cool it down?

Could be part of the fresh air mix, or keeping it from getting too hot. I would definitely try it with Auto SS off to see if that is it. I highly doubt you will find many people who have experienced this, as I can't imagine there are many people keeping their cabin at 80...wow.

What do you have the fresh air vents in the middle set to in the iDrive? You can tell it to have cold or warm air regardless of the temp of the rest of the car.

I didn't even know this was a setting, I'll have to check what it's set to when I leave work, Thanks! Lol I'll report back.

Does it happen all the time? Heat should work as long as the engine/coolant is warmed up.
I actually have a similar issue, although it's the opposite as yours...See this thread. https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showt...php?p=26833120 |

I'm having the same issue with my 2022 X3 m40i, have you figured it out? It will be set in the high 70's and occasionally blow cold air and I just don't understand why.

Another question - Are you circulating your air in the cabin or bringing in new fresh air? Last edited by AZM40i; 12-01-2021 at 09:10 AM.. |

Ahhh ok. My sales rep told me that if it's set to auto, it'll cycle warm and cold to keep the internal temp to what I set it to. But I don't have auto turned on so I'm at a loss. Lol must be some quirky thing that's meant to happen.

I haven't figured it out yet, my sales rep told me if it's set to auto it will try to maintain whatever temp you have set so the cool air will blow if the cabin gets hotter but I don't have it set to auto so I'm stumped.

I have it recirculating the air I'm not a fan of the fresh air option. Makes my hair frizzy when it's crappy outside lol |
