Need Advice on MKv GTI intermittent cooling issue
« on: March 27, 2025, 03:17:48 pm »
Hello,
So i have a VW golf GTI 2007, with AC issues.
Symptoms:

-the AC stops blowing cold air suddenly. Sometimes it fixes it self, sometimes i restart the car and it works, sometimes it stays like this for a few days then it works
What my mechanic have checked and tried:

- Low pressure sensor code, so i changed the pressure sensor (the one that is plugged on the freon line) it worked for a day then it stopped working (worth noting my mechanic changed this sensor 4 times before finding one that works). Now it works from time to time

-Freon levels are good

-Compressor pressure is good; 10 bar (when it's working)
-both fans kick on when the compressor is running
-I have a p2181 code. not sure if this helps
Any help appreciated!
