IN-dash LCD question.

Is the little meter for the air flow strength supposed to work? I would imagine it is there for a reason, I asked the dealer if it was suposed to work and they said no. Although I have some concerns about my car and they always blame it on the Rotary engine theory crap. If anything goes wrong it's normal because it's a rotary.

It only works in non-US cars that have automatic climate control.

Autimatic Climate control, WTF, why the heck are USA cars always missing something from the JDM counterparts. I paid good money for my car at the very least it should come with the same crap, except where it needs to be legal for emissions! *irritated*

i felt the same way when it was first announced but actually by most accounts i have read from our uk brethern we are better off without the auto climate. i agree that it would nice if the indicator worked, but really whats the point? it's not like it is much trouble to figure out what speed the fan is blowing

It's a little odd, but my air flow indicators actually came on a couple times I was using the a/c. Must have been a glitch.
Might have to check the flux capacitor soon.
