Weak A/C?

On the hottest days, I don't think I've had the temp set below 75F/24C for more than 10 minutes to cool the vehicle down. I'm usually at 24-24.5C (75-76F).

No complaints here.
 
I have checked the temp exiting the center vents and it was as cold as anything I have ever tested.

The airflow volume exiting the registers compared to many other cars/trucks is noticeably less at max fan speed, this is what I believe most owners have an issue with.
 
Here in Phoenix its 118

(Parked in the garage) silver with a black interior.

Couple of min and no problems.

My A/C works great even in Florida heat. It helps to have windows tinted dark, sunshade on windshield and rear air off. Cools down very quick IMO.
 
We had a week or two during this summer where it was 115+ and my car was parked outside during the whole day, I have tinted windows and I did crack all the windows to let some of the heat out.
My A/C blew really cold on full auto, and once on the freeway I had to turn it down it was so cold, I am usually the only person in my car so what I do to get as much air on me as possible is I close the passenger vent and the rear seat vent to direct more air on me, the biggest problem I have is my leather seats (Black) get so hot they retain the heat for a while and makes my back hot and sweaty until I sit forward and let the air get back there...........
 
Mine is ice cold and usually has the wife turning up the temp a little because she is so cold. I don't think it takes longer to cool down my 4R than any other vehicle I've owned.
 
Came close to buying an F150 before my LE this summer. That F150 AC really sucked and had to run full fan to keep it cool on a hot afternoon test drive. My impression was that the 4Runner had a very good AC compared to other vehicles.

Actually my 2004 Wrangler has colder feeling AC, but I usually have the windows or top off, so it doesn't really matter.
 
2010 TE, mine feels like a asthmatic blowing thru a straw when in max mode.

We have a 2012 Camry in the garage and that blower kicks out some serious air.

My Crew Max is like a asthmatic with emphysema blowing thru a straw.

Overall not impressed by Toyota AC.

Thanks for converting for us in the U.S.A. lol



And Silver with black interior only the front windows tinted (rest factory smoke color) and the truck cools efficiently and quickly! I use the auto setting all of the time. Here in Colorado we were stuck in the 90's with sun every day for what seems like forever. Finally broke today (last night.) Highs in the mid 60's today.
