How does solar sunroof and shades pkg. with black interior compare to silver leather w/o pkg. in terms of comfort level? Does solar sunroof make black interior bearable in southern summer heat?

so it is pretty much like the outside air tempevery time I have gotten in it. I have it with black interior and I live near Houston...wouldn't give it up for anything.

Someone else said it better in an earlier post, but it went something like this:

If the car is driven til warm/hot and then parked for, say, an hour or two, the solar powered system will suck that warm engine compartment air into the passenger compartment. In winter this is OK, but in summer it can actually make the interior hotter in my experience.

But if the car is parked for, say, eight hours, that allows time for the engine to cool. So, by then, the air sucked in should reflect what's happening outside, i.e. not warmed by the engine. In summer this can result in the car being cooler inside, which is what the system is supposed to do (finally!). But in winter it can result in a colder interior.

In the Summer, the heat from engine bay circulates in the car. In the Winter, if it is sunny, the cold air circulates. Did not think it was a great option. It's ok. If I had to choose it, would probably pass on it.

I doubt there's anything new but don't really know. Maybe someone using a VAG COM could figure it out for sure.

Honest mistake.
