  Hi all, My 1997 Escort Ghia X 1.8 has developed a noise and vibration when the air con is used. It is a very dull, low pitched noise, almost like a fan, accompanied by a vibration which can be felt thru the floor/steering etc. Any ideas?? PP
• Mondeo smelly air system 6 Aug 2002 (Forum)
  When using the air con or not I have a smell emitting from the air system, sometimes the windscreen steams up. My local garage has advised me that the cost for this is around £100.00, this indicates to me that this is a relatively small job and possible within my capability?
• Peugeot 207 SW - Foul smel from ventilation system 17 Jan 2017 (Forum)
  Can someone please help with this problem which has affected my partner,s car since she left the recirculated air control permanently on for several months. The air con man has tried everything including smoke bombs etc to no avail. HJ recommended putting the heater on full just before switching off which helped a little but the problem continues but only when the car is first used.

• Nissan Micra (1992 - 2003) - 01 1.0 NATS alarm system: switching it off 13 Sep 2008 (Forum)
  Just bought a 2001 Micra Activ. This is a special edition that has central locking, air con and NATS alarm system. Unfortunately, there is no user manual with the car.

• Is this too expensive for a Yaris? 12 Dec 2005 (Forum)
  The local Toyota dealer is advertising an ex demo 55 reg 1.0 Colour Collection with 935 miles on the clock for £7495. They have added air con and alloys. The What Car Target Price is £7277. I think the air con & alloys would come to about £1000, but do you think £7495 is a bit steep considering it has been driven by god knows who and there is a new model coming out 1st Jan?
