Just spoke to my dealer about this. According to Ineos, "by design", some air comes into the vents that bypasses the heater core when you have it on ONLY face vent. If you split it with the feet, I believe that does not happen.
Odd, but ok, I guess.

IslandFalconer, it is quite possible that you have the absolute worst built Grenadier on the planet. If I scroll through your messages, virtually every thing that can go wrong has gone wrong with your Grenadier. Coincidentally, I believe you have had just as many things go wrong with the loaner that Ineos provided you, also.
I’ve noticed this also. I just assumed that air remained ahead of the heater core and when the fans are activated, the lines are simply being cleared. I run on Auto, as I do all my cars. I have no complaints - but it is a quirky temperature setting methodology. I kinda dig it.
Actually the only problem with the loaner was the battery. Otherwise pretty solid.
"We" are forced to endure these nanny issues because everyone is more focused on shaving, applying makeup, eating a meal and drinking concurrently, reading, watching the latest show they missed the night before on either their built in device or hand held, name it ... AND NOT driving their car. People are of the mentality of "I can multitasking" better than the driver next to me!! Safety people have mandated these things in the name of "safer driving" - we don't need safer driving, we simply need people paying attention to their driving. These safety things just empower people to do more stupid stuff!! I humbly don't think you are a dinosaur for I am not one either

Great post and some great points. I was able to read it while I had my adaptive cruise control on with lane assist."We" are forced to endure these nanny issues because everyone is more focused on shaving, applying makeup, eating a meal and drinking concurrently, reading, watching the latest show they missed the night before on either their built in device or hand held, name it ...

It's funny how the advent of the automatic dishwasher in the home didn't reduce the home makers work load, it just meant they must have more time to complete other household chores."We" are forced to endure these nanny issues because everyone is more focused on shaving, applying makeup, eating a meal and drinking concurrently, reading, watching the latest show they missed the night before on either their built in device or hand held, name it ...

The update is basically “Please wait” maybe by end of first Quarter per my dealership. But we all know how that goes
There was never actually a July release date; one dealership in Texas decided to tell customers there would be one, and it started this whole mess.
I spoke with Greg before his resignation and he did assure me an update would be available, but there was no firm timeline
It’s simply because this group knows from experience not to get their hopes up. As @anand said, there was one dealer who got a little excited last year and then the rumor mill got going. Lesson learned for all of us is “it’s here when it’s here.” I had mine in for 1 year service in Chicago last week, and they wisely said “we hear rumors of end of Q1 but who knows.” And even then, who knows which VIN’s it covers. Anyhow - this thread will drift because the forum members learned there’s no point - until they hear a confirmed case of a software update or receive an official communication.
I'm guessing 4/1, not because it's April fools day, but because I'm making the treck to the service department the week before.
Please make sure to make the trip extra miserable - that will help ensure the update comes the following week. Flat tire, an eagle snatches a lug nut while you’re changing it, you climb the tree up to its eyrie only to find a bear cub up there, and its mama is waiting at the bottom when you want to come down, so you have to spend the next 3 days lashed to a branch during the storm of the century. You know - the usual.
I like this fusion of "trek" and "dreck"!
Well it is driving into Seattle, so pretty much the same!
