Yet another Air Con woe......

[Drapoon]

Yep it's a total joke - £674 for a new one form my local dealer aswell!

I know a forum member selling a compressor cheap if you are interested?

I can fwd you his details for you to enquire

I almost bought it to fit myself but luckily didn't need it in the end.

VW told me that they would consider a recall on the crap compressor if enough people complained. Maybe a should start a petition!

im in for that!! mines goin in next thurs for supected compressor failure, even though the compressor was changed 10months ago under warrenty!!!!!! & now its no longer under warrenty
saying that if it is the compressor i will be demanding they sort it for free as there is no way i will be paying for another 10 month after a new 1 was fitted.

Thanks for the offer mate but I'll pass. I want to get the unit brand new with the 2 year warranty and lots of come back should they fit it and it not be the issue.

Cheers for offering though Drapoon.

No worries chap

Luckily my dad is a mechanic so fitting for me would have been quite simple

good luck

Had a problem with my air con.  (2007 Ed 30) No gas and radiator fan kept coming on all the time.The local dealer fixed it under (extended) warranty. They were prepared to change the compressor and the radiator but it was something much simpler  - not sure what . Had it done at GILDERS (Chesterfield)  Very obliging so far. I'm sure they would advise you of my problem and  it's solution.

I had showed them the following ** .  Let me have your e-mail address if you can't get it and I will send a photo by e-mail. I STILL don't know exactly how to get a photo on this site through photo bucket.  It is always explained to me as though I AM some sort of computer genius who really KNOWS how to do it. Oh well....I live in hope.

2: Click on the large blue box that says 'Upload' and select the photo/s you want

3: Once its uploaded click on the image and then at either the bottom or the left of the screen there should be 4 x boxed with various headings such as URL, IMG etc.

4: Highlight the IMG (the bottom box) and then copy it with a right click.

5: Post what ever your going to post and then copy the IMG code from Photobucket into the same place. It should come up with something in brackets. Post your post and it should work.
