AC in the wagon seemed to work fine today. It was around 95 and I was reading about 50 or lower with a vent thermometer, not perfect but I also vented a tiny bit yesterday in that superheat scare.. unfortunately couldn’t get live data because ISTA was having that time of the month.

Went to mess with the E92 since I knew it was kinda low, turns out the e92 can easily get down to 3-2C evaporator temps. However the vent temps are pretty much atmosphere, just a bit cooler. Leads me to believe the evaporator on it might be dirty as hell?

I wonder if it is related to the front stratification flap. Some fiddling around and when the AC is on MAX which it just blows ambient vent temp the flap is at 100%. However when I undo the MAX AC setting and set fan speed lower, the stratification flap begins to lower in percentage and the air gets a bit cooler. See last 2 pictures. This is a nice issue to have when I’m trying to sell the car in 2 days
