Air con not working ;-(

<< < (4/5) > >>

Drapoon:
Rang vw - basically as my car is 9 days out of Warranty I will have to pay £69.99 for them to investigate the problem & also it wont be covered under warranty :sad1:

scotta:
I would call VW customer services direct see what they say.

Richn83:
What Scotta said, and then at least see if they will give you the 69.99 off the final bill if they do find out whats wrong, and you get them to fix it.  Although that sounds ridiculous amount, unless they are going to do a full leak test/recharge!   :surprised:

Drapoon:
Small update - I located one of the shraeder valves on the piepwork to the air con & pushed it in with a key to see how much gas I had - hardly anything!

So getting the system re-gassed tomorrow before I do anything too drastic.

I hope I haven't mashed the clutch using it with hardly any gas....?

I located the compressor but could not quite see the label to identify which unit I have, will keep u posted ;-)


cheers all

Richn83:
Hope that fixes it, the biggest problem with low gas, and with not using it regularly (all Aircon) is that the gas carries around the lubrication for the seals so hopefully it will re-pressurise and you can cool down again  :happy2:
