Honda HR-V 2016 - HRV Air Con Failure 22 Jul 2020 (Forum)
Come lockdown it sat on the drive for 3 months, from the end of the extended warranty until I drove it down for its annual service and MOT at the end of June. I advised dealer Air Con wasn't working, although it had been when I drove it before, in Feburary. A bit of investigation later and now I am faced with a £2243.11 bill that has been reduced by 60% to £897.24 as apparently at some point in the 10 miles I drove from the point of expiry of the extended warranty to the dealership, the compressor, clutch, stator and filter sub assembly all wrote themselves off. -
Peugeot 306 (1993 - 2001) - aircon stopped working - fuse? 8 Mar 2006 (Forum)
As I understand that the two fans run in parallel and have two speeds for cooling. Before I changed my cooling fan last year my air con worked with just one cooling fan working. Before anyone asks - Yes I have checked the handbook and it only refers to cooling there is no mention of air con or compressor in any way. The Haynes manuals don't cover the cabriolet. -
Ford Focus II (2004 - 2007) - 06 1.6 Air conditioning appears to have packed up 3 Jun 2009 (Forum)
The air-con on the wife's Focus appears to have packed up. The light on the switch says it's on but it plainly isn't. She keeps it permanently on low all year (to avoid seals drying out) but has only noticed it not working during the recent warm weather. -
Almera heating 27 Jan 2004 (Forum)
I've just collected an Almera 1.8 with aircon. The manual air temperature control doe's not work. It has air con (it worked when I originally drove it). The control can be turned but on the cool air setting where it should allow outside air it just continues to pump out hot air. -

Ford Focus Zetec 2008 - Does 3 months warranty from dealer cover faulty AC 11 Jun 2014 (Forum)
Hi, we bought a Ford Focus Zetec (2008) from a local dealer a couple of weeks ago. We noticed last weekend that the air con doesn't work. Not only does it not cool the car down but the fan hardly blows any air even when on maximum setting. We didn't notice it on the test drive as it was cold enought to not need air con but it wasn't cold enough for us to use the heating. -

Misting windows 3 Dec 2006 (Forum)
Any tips on the best way to deal/avoid this? I've done what my manual says - "turn the blower on and aim air down the sides" This is and old Passat estate - no air con, no blowers down the back The manual doesn't say what temp to blow at and I can't experiment too much while driving as I can't see - esp out the rear side windows any advice gratefully received -

Audi A4 1.9 Tdi - Continuous hot air from heater 28 Feb 2021 (Forum)
My air con has broken on this car and I have been advised that the repair is so expensive on cars of this age 2003 that it simply isn’t worth it. But the cabin temperature last summer was unbearable , but over the winter the heater would not work so I had the thermostat replaced. -
Vauxhall Vectra C - another water leak 12 Jan 2015 (Forum)
I had a leak in my Vectra last August which was correctly diagnosed on this forum as a blocked water drainer next to the air con intake which meant water was spilling into the car through the air duct. I removed the black rubber part that was blocked so it wouldn't happen again. I have just found water again in passenger foot well, not as bad as last time. -
2008 VW Golf 1.9 tdi with BXE engine - cooling fan runs randomly 16 Feb 2020 (Forum)
That's how I know the fan is running and when I switch off the engine it usually runs for a few seconds and sounds like a jet engine. I've got air con on this model and am aware that the fan will spin faster with this on but air con is not on when the fault occurs. I'm really stuck as to what it could be. -
Ford Mondeo Mk3 1.8i - Ford Mondeo Mk3 - Aircon compressor clutch 1 Jan 2014 (Forum)
Hi all, The aircon in my 2006 Mk3 Mondeo has never worked since buying, though after reading that many people have had success repairing it by replacing the shim in the air con compressor clutch (see: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?t=63198#m870733 ) I opted to give the potential cheap fix a go myself.
