Does anyone else think the A/C seems a bit underpowered?

Default The A/C in my S4 works flawlessly. In fact, it gets cold very fast and

is probably the best I've experienced to date.

Default Both my S4's and the RS4 all have great A/C's. Oklahoma summer, no problem!

If your car is parked outside open the windows for the 1st block when you start driving to get the superheated air out. I would take it to the dealer and at least let them give it the once over ie. coolant level, belt tension etc. Heat index here was 118 last Friday and my car did fine.

Coolant level for AC? Thinking more like freon recharge or check for leaks in AC system

I've been thinking about that. I had an A/C leak in the RS6.
