I find the system adequate (but not nearly as strong as my wife's lexus rx350), however, the annoying thing is I find you need to set the auto temp super low (19-20) to get a comfortable temp. Or when its very hot out set it at max AC.

the system is cold enough to keep the car comfortable, but it seems like its just working very hard to do it if that makes any sense, whereas other cars seem to have more "headroom"

I have also noticed the glass seems to let a lot more heat in than other cars too and my windows are tinted with high heat rejection film 30%. But when the sun is on the driver side window i can literally feel it radiating on me. Which is interesting because this BMW switched from pilkington to another brand of glass (forget the name)
