Summer has arrived here (29) and I'm finding that the aircon is bordering on useless.

What are your experiences so far? My observations:

Doorside vents have little power
No air covering the windscreen so a lot of heat comes over the top
Temperature of the air from the vents (aircon set to 19) is cool, not cold.
The general strength of the fans is weak, i.e. if you ask the car to "cool my feet" - the only way you know is that the front facing vents slow, you can barely feel anything on the feet.

I had problems when we first bought the car and there was zero cold air, so I don't know if it's connected or that the aircon is just substandard.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry not seen any issues here in 'Sunny' Wales.. Just popped out and left the dog in the car for 10mins whilst I picked something up, left the air con running (apologies to other poster with issues around that) and the car was like a fridge when I got back.
What is the output like if you hit the Max cooling button on the Clima screen?

I'm hitting the Max button in an attempt to get cool sadly.

Car going back to dealer next week. Aircon now operating like an air-fryer.
