So this video came up in my youtube recommendations:
I clicked on it to see what it was about. While watching it, I got to thinking I wonder how cheap these actually are. You know what, I should configure one. So that’s what I did.
While configuring one, I came to the part where you could compare two trims side by side, where I saw “Manual AC.” This is a super cheap basic car, so that means windows?
(Yes I know that’s not what they mean, I just thought it sounded strange.)

It means air conditioning where you control the fan speed and temperature yourself. That’s a nice luxury now, A/C was originally standard on only the top-spec Lauréate trim level. It’s now also available on the Ambiance for 2017.
If you’d like, here’s a review I wrote a few months back about the Sandero :P

Funny it’s you who pointed this out...
I was actually thinking the “automatic” air conditioning on my F30 was so complex, it ended up being manual again. Set the temperature to a fixed 22C both sides, middle max fan speed, and use the ventilation mix like the manual A/C on my Solstice, red side of the dial for hot air, blue side for cold.
Whereas in other automatic A/C systems, just one numeric temperature, that’s it.

I’m happy I have real AC in the Clio, because with my driver’s window stuck I would only have 1/80 AC otherwise...

Wouldn’t be too hard to take the trim off and take a look at the power window regulator, would it (or does your car have manual windows? Mine has manual windows :P )? Trim clips can be a pain though.
The Clio is a fairly basic car, so I wouldn’t think it would be too tricky? Maybe it just needs a new regulator motor? Then again, I’ve heard the assembly and motor are sometimes built as one piece for some cars.... -_-
