Aircon Blowing Hot Air
Oli:
No only if you ask for it - Im surprised, as dealers usually recommend it/force it upon you!
Cost should be £50+VAT for a full air con service and re-gas, thats what we charge anyway.

The compressor failed on my car. Apparently is was something to do with the switch on its end. The temperature of the air seemed to be fine, then one day it suddenly wouldn't blow cold. I took it to get recharged at an independent garage and they tried and failed to recharge it. VW fixed it under warranty.

Damn it, I wished they'd said it might need doing when they serviced it, because now I'm going to have to book it in an faff around getting lifts etc! Oh well, can't have hot air blowing in my face!

Think VW are still doing an offer of full service, recharge and refresh for either £69 or £79. :smiley:

It only takes 15-30 minutes to do. Doesnt need to be a dealer. In fact, there are cheaper air con specialists out there.
