My name is Abdulrahman and just collected my field master early April with 5k kms already made by myself.
The only problem is the Aircon its blowing hot air instead of cold.

With our weather conditions i bet itll be a tough summer for all IG owners in the region facing a similar issue

I live in North Queensland Australia, typical days here are 35 degrees celsius, and my A/C works fine. Must be a fault. I'd take it for a service with the agent. Defo not normal.

Turn on re-circulation on the air conditioner, that should help. I am assuming the air con dial has been set to cold.

Set the temperature wheel to max cold. All other positions blow hot air. There is no way to regulate temperature in my car. It is either hot or cold. Nothing in between. An annoying bug. There is no fix from Ineos and i am not sure if there ever will be one. Go talk to your dealer!

I got my Grenadier about one year ago, and my airco didn't work, it blew the ambient air. There was a crack in one of the ducts so that the gas had escaped.

In this thread you can find a picture of the location of my leak:

I am having issues with my AC also. Set to cold with the AC on the front will blow frigid air while the rear vents blow so hot I am concerned it might melt the plastic. If I attempt to turn up the the temp dial a bit the front goes from cold to extremely hot with no in between temp option. Sometimes it will blow cold front and back but again if I try and turn up the temp a bit all vents go extremely hot. Its to the point now that If I start the car and I get cold air I don't dare touch anything because it will go immediately to hot. The only thing that seems to reset the system is stopping and turning off the car for a few minutes and starting it again.
Using the auto control only turns all my fans to full blast and always with hot air, it seems using auto function turns the AC off. The system will also turn on by itself when I have the controls in the off position. I need to turn the AC on then off again to get it to turn off. Basically the HVAC system sucks. I called the dealer and asked if there where any other owners that have had their trucks in for HVAC repairs and they said only to recharge syaatfems that had leaks. I am hesitant to bring it in if there is no fix because I know they are going have it awhile or run the air once and not see the issue and say there is no problem. Hoping there is a software update that addresses it but I have a feeling its beyond a software update.

Something that worked for me. Ask the dealer to hard reset using their diagnostic equipment. It’s definitely software but it might not of been installed properly in the first place.

Hi Abdulrahman , have you managed to get your Aircon corrected as yet. I am in the UK so it never gets very warm but my air conditioning didn't get cold. It was re charged with gas which worked for a while and then again failed to get cold. It turns out that two hoses were leaking at the unions. I am currently awaiting the parts to be delivered to the dealer so hopefully it will be resolved soon. Very Best

Exactly the same happens to mine! All of a sudden starts blowing warm air in the front and burning hot in the rear…
Is a weird thing but the only solution I’ve found, is to shut down the car, lock it, wait 5 minutes, do the airplane like procedure to turn on (wait for all the lights to turn off before cranking) and all of the sudden cold air blowing!
Hopefully is a software issue with a rapid solution! because at 105 F in south florida I really need AC…
I call my AC moody!
