Your 3rd quarter car was before the heat pump? I believe it is 4th quarter they started using heat pumps. December 2021/january 22.I have a Made in China M3LR, third quarter 2021...and I live in the South of France..the air con seems to work fine...it blows in our face (in fact we usually have it so that it blows over our head because it’s too cold on the face)...
But the Tesla service man is coming tomorrow to ‘fix’ it...I made an appointment because a small part fell out of my wing mirror... and Tesla said they will fix the heat pump...I will see what happens tomorrow
My heat pump model cannot blow air over my head like older models can. Only my face and lower. So it fits pre heat pump cars are unaffected and have normal operation of air flow. (ie, not on legs)
