snapey:
How do chaps,

Out of interest how long does it take for your A/C to start blasting freezing cold air from the point it's pressed on the dash?

TomB:
Sometimes mine blows out cold air instantly, other times never.

I fear my compressors knackered.

jon-tfsi:
Mine used to work quickly every time.
The compressor just packed in one day with no warning. after the new compressor was fitted lots of cold air almost instantly.
8 months later and it now takes about 5-10 mins to cool down.
Im hoping it just needs topping up

Norbreck21a:
Whilst not a GTI (a GT TDi) my 4 and a bit year old example uses exactly the same climate control as the GTI. From a first press, I guess it takes 15-25 seconds or so before really cold air come out. It seems to be the same amount of time every time.

stealthwolf:
Yeah takes a good few seconds to kick in. Never noticed it coming on after thirty seconds.
