Default Cabin temperature displays different

Anyone seen this? Feature, needs re-cal, or something else?


In the top right quadrant of the touch screen, the internal driver's and passenger's temperature displays are 1 degree less (always) than the numerics displayed on each separate knob...

Is it not showing commanded temp on the dials and achieved temp on the display?
Or does the display change with the dial setting. Learning curve for me until my baby arrives

I have this same exact issue. Was going to talk to the service department at the dealership when I bring in the car in a month or so for its first service.

So, it's not just me then! Thanks for confirming... I too have added this to my growing list...

I believe you will find that they are all like that. Not an issue when you display in Celsius. This has been an issue since day 1. There are some old threads regarding this matter.

Change it to °C and enjoy the accuracy and sensibility of the metric system!

I didn't know that inanimate objects were capable of defiance.

I have a 2017 F-type and I can't find a setting to display ambient cabin temp. Perhaps it has been eliminated due to the questions that arise? Could you point me to the setting to enable it? See my display below...

Funny, I always thought the dials showed your desired temps, and the touchscreen showed actuals

lol I see what you did there.

But for the record, I am the defiant one amongst my devices, inanimate or otherwise :P

I thought the reference was to the wifey and figured it was an inside joke. Makes more sense now.

haha, I didn't consider that angle, and perhaps that is what Unhingd meant!

No, that association is too complex for my simple brain to handle.

I have the 3 temp displays on my 2016, and it's totally redundant. It makes sense that they did away with it.

I have a late build '16 and it only shows the external temperature.

Have to agree with Unhingd on the redundancy. AMR42 has 5 different temps showing and none of them match... sometimes less is more.
