Is this happening after you turned off the heater / ac? At first I couldn't figure out how to turn off the a/c / heater. To do so, continue to press the fan speed button towards down. After a couple of clicks it will turn off the fan and say off on the display. Next time you turn the car on the a/c / heater will not automatically start.

do you have the sports chrono package? if so then it is a memory function that is adjusted on the PCM.

Hey,
If your car isn't overheating then I'm gonna guess that the air is getting heated up by heat stored up in the car and from the cooling system. I see you live up north, does it do the same thing with it's below 0 outside? if so then you have a magic car that can instantly produce heat, if not then i'm getting the HVAC system in your car just can't quite get the job done. I think similar things about my car when I'm trying to use the outside air.

Thanks.

i can almost tell you for sure that its what programmed with your key. go adjust it in the PCM and it will all go away. have fun.

btw, all info regarding this can be found in the owner manual.
