    Question about AC before I buy

    I'm looking at getting a 2014 535d or 535i and I live in the south (Georgia). For those who know, it can get pretty warm down here in the summers. My last BMW's AC was did a poor job cooling during the warmer months and would be a deterrent for future BMW's if it had the same AC. For those who have the models I listed, does it have a cold AC?

    Thanks...

    Hello - yes, the AC on both those 5-series works exceptionally well. You may want to turn it down at some point

    I love turbos!
    I got my 14 535i a few weeks ago and the ac is great! I have it set at 72 and have to turn the fan speed down. My car is white on black and the car doesn't get that hot. I have a silver/black 06 Murano as my daily and that car heats up. I have the temp set to 67 to keep it comfy in the cabin. Years ago, I had an aubergine/aubergine E39 540 that I ran at 68 to keep it cool. Our summers can get pretty humid in Honolulu.

    Any modern day BMW will have exceptional AC (assuming there are no problems with the system). My guess is that your last car may have had a low refrigerant charge.
