• Skoda Fabia Estate Mk1 - Air Con 27 Jul 2015 (Forum)
  2005 Mk1 Fabia Estate. 1.9TDi FSH from new, but no mention anywhere of any work or recharging of the air con. Currently in Spain and whilst the air con does work, I am not convinced that it works as well as it could; that might be due to the heat. My question is, to what temperature should the system cool the air, or by how much from ambient should it drop?
• Air Con. Regular Servicing? 5 May 2005 (Forum)
  Just had a letter from my VW dealer suggesting that the air con on my Passat should be serviced every 2 years at a price of £89.95. Is this yet another way for dealers to make money or is there any validity in the idea? My Passat is 4 years old and the air con (climate control) works perfectly.

• Air Con - is it worth it? 2 Nov 2001 (Forum)
  I have read with interest the various threads over the last few months about air con. When I choose my next car, it likely to be 3 to 4 years old ex fleet and not more than £5K. I intend running the car for another 3 years (30K). For the first time many of the cars falling into this category have air con.

• Almera Air-con 4 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  Haven't really bothered with the air-con since I bought the car a couple of months ago, but I've noticed that it's not very cold at all. Compressor is working, because the revs change when the air-con's switched on, and the car won't climb hills with it on!
