• Vauxhall Vectra C - Air Con support bracket 10 Dec 2010 (Forum)
  Hi, I was driving till work the other morning and the power steering light was displayed in the tachometer so i dropped the car off with the mechanic who told me that the aluminium support bracket under the power steering and air con pumps had snapped. I've rang my local Vaux dealer enquiring into the part number and he told me that the bracket should be mark with 'AL' and the part number is 24401737. Has anyone else ever experienced this part failure and am I even asking about the correct part?

  hi all, just filled up a/con with gas at kwik fit, but air still no cooler so did'nt have to pay, but they did say your pump is working as it is going in and out (whatever that meens) there is a fast ticking sound from the engine on tick over and low revs but when you put your foot down a bit, you cannot hear it,  the sound comes from the o/s around the belt area and only lasts for 30 secs or so, on and off, could this be the same problem.............any ideas what i can try?

  I have a November 2004 Renault Scenic 1.9dci dynamique. The air con does not seem very cold (although we have not had much hot weather to warrant switching it on) I have an RS Thermocouple measuring instrument that I could measure the temperature. Does anyone know what sort of reading I should expect and where should I be putting the probe to measure the temp?

• Air conditioning testing 16 Dec 2004 (Forum)
  The 306 has served me well and so I'm looking to get a newer one, an HDi about W(2000) reg. Now these all seem to come with air con, but in this cold weather, how do I test it? Feeling for cold air coming out of the vents seems a bit of a no-no seeing as I probably wont be able to tell the difference between the air-con'ed air and the outside air temp.
• Honda Civic 2001 1.4i ES - Air con / spare wheel help please 28 Apr 2022 (Forum)
  I'm loving the car so far. It's a Honda Civic 2001 1.4i SE model. Drives lovely like a new car, but the air con doesn't work. The light on the dash button does light up, but air flow is same as normal cool temp, and the air con is not heard / felt kicking in. I've read the condenser could be dead, and that means big spends, which I won't be doing.
