Quick post about AC and hood
I was curious if I was the only one who felt that the AC in the RA is really weak, like most cars we have the AC is much much stronger, also whenever I open my hood it sounds like theres sand or beads in the hood and it rolls down every time I open it, just curious of what that was, thanks people!

My AC is good and cold, the hood noise may be the tubes for the washer nozzles moving under the hood scoop, check em out they are kinda loose in there .

It's not that it's not cold, it's just not very powerful

Close the two passenger side vents. Then it blasts you on the halfway setting

You can always turn it half a click between the "cabin + foot well" and "cabin" setting. This lets 25% to the foot well and 75% to the cabin, unlike 50/50.

Exactly what everyone tells me too. It gets really hot here in the summer and it seems to work great for me.

Well does anyone know about the hood problem? Sounds like sand running down the interior of my hood.

Best bet is to give your local dealer a call and ask them. Maybe something is loose that shouldn't be and is moving around?

i think its literally dirt / rocks/ road debris that has gotten stuck inside the hood, it isnt a loose nozzle or loose hoses or anything it is what it sounds like, dirt/sand.
