Danny, I sometimes wonder if other posters bother to read location, in Sweden for example the average annual temperature is around 18c in Israel you easily experience 10c warmer and that's as an average that's probs 5c warmer than California! Am guessing this is why you probably want it on a higher setting?
No suggestion from me sadly excepting to turn it up once you're in

Usually the fan speed is driven by the temperature control. Do we assume that you adjust the temp. setting to either a lower or higher number based on the outside temp. For an example the lower you set the temp. the higher (faster) the fan speed.

Yes, agree with you on the settings logic, however I would like that on the steady state after riching the right temperature the fan will mantaima a slightly higher speed which is exactly what the Volvo climate control does
I guess it's just different English logic which I need to live with

Funny you should mention that, in 1994 air-con was added to 'standard/pedestrian' cars for the first time in the UK, I bought a Ford Mondeo (you may call a Taurus?). My air-con was perfect, however owners of the Ford Fiesta (sub compact & two slots below the Mondeo) thought it too cold and those with a Galaxy (people carrier) found it wasn't cold enough. It transpired that Ford UK in their wisdom had fitted the same air-con system to all of their range regardless of the size of the interior. Hey but that was almost 25yrs ago and am sure they've learnt sommat by now

Yes it was sold new here. I guess if digging into dealer SW there may be option to change climate control defaults ...I don't have visibility into it unfortunately

But if you want a higher fan speed than AUTO is selecting, just rotate the knob -it takes less than 2 seconds (but as you will have thus opted for manual control, the system cancels the AUTO setting).

One thing some people don't realize about "AUTO" is that if the coolant temp isn't hot, the fan does not come on High as it wouldn't do any good regardless. The fan WILL automatically increase once the coolant temperature reaches a point where it would be beneficial to actually warming the car.
I do believe the AC side also works that way, but with the refrigerant instead of coolant temp. Course it'd respond much quicker since refrigerant doesn't require secondary thermal energy.
