could be the reason. i remember though it was never that cold before. i have actually just came back from vacation and was out for about 3 weeks and it only did it after. my car is an 05 btw if it might be an 05 issue.

I do know that if you turn on the heat (During winter, I assume, otherwise you might be crazy 
), and don't turn on the fan, the heat is still on (will slowly radiate through your vents). Obviously haven't tried it yet on my tC, but every car I've been in does this.
It works well for heating up the car without making the inside of car feel like a desert (totally dry) and drying out yours' and your passengers eyes, throats, and other mucousal passage s :D

i found out i was right. brought it to the dealer gave me the explanataion about how thats how it is on any normal car. after the oil change though, the air wasn't cold anymore probably had to do with something electrical?
