Re-circulation aka "Max A/C" is just a band-aid that frankly in my wife's X5 is the only way the A/C can even catch up and function in AZ summer temperatures. If I had to "Max A/C" in the M850i with its tiny cabin vs the X5 I'd be an absolutely unhappy camper. It's just starting to sound like BMW has an issue with the M8/M8C A/C which is mind boggling as the same core components (compressor, condenser, etc.) should be equivalent across the 8-series.

Hence, my prior inquiry if anyone is tracking the build dates on the cars as there may be a corollary with a lot of bad OEM parts. Outside of that the "tweaks" to the M8/M8C within the engine bay may be the issue as the core duct work, etc. into the cabin once again should be universal.
