Mine is the same color combo in a super cab.

Me too. We can't help being a little arrogant too. There is no place like Texas in the Spring (or in August either)

Thanks for the replies guys. I will bring it in this Tuesday morning. Hopefully will be something easy? I will also print out the bulletin to show the tech. I'll let ya'll know the outcome. Our past crown vic would freeze you out too.

Problem Solved - Leaking O ring

The service guy at Mac Haik in Georgetown, Jay Warren, was very attentive to my AC problem. Greeted me in the service bay and put his hand next to the vent and stated right off, "No way that's 42 degrees, we'll get that fixed for you right away". Talk about first impressions! Anyway, problem solved as it had a leaking O ring. Of course we have a cold front now in Central TX with temps dropping to high 40's. But I'm sure it's where it should be. Thanks for the posts guys.

Good, it's nice to know of a good dealer.

I have an 04 6.0 with the heater control valve...I had dealer disconnect the vacuumn line so I could adjust the temperature when it was on MAX cool....my ac runs about 45 degrees here in Florida...I couldn't take the smell from the engine compartment when I was on recirculated air....no longer a problem....

P.S. mine is dark satin green crewcab

Mine is a 06-03 build and the A/C works perfect on Max A/C. I like it because it keeps the dust and road smells out. It never picks up smells except when I've had Tex Mex chili, beans & onions.

I bought my truck at Mac Haik in Georgetown. I get it serviced there. They have a couple of diesel techs and service advisors. I use Pat Malmgren as service advisor. The service manager, Charlie Folger, is pretty good. I have been happy with the service. If something is wrong, they make it right.
