Andy:
AS MENTIONED IT MIGHT BE THE CLUTCH PART ON THE COMPRESSOR PUMP NOT ENGAGING PROPERLY

danishmkvgti:
If you have a Zexel or valeo pump, VW has a tsb on it, it should be replaced with a Sanden pump (or Nippon Denso). I changed mine last summer and now it has stopped working again. The pressure valve is changed but in vain, the system is tested for leaks 3 times. Now i'm going to change the dials in the cabine, just to exclude them. Might be the Sanden pump even though it's only 11 month old  :scared:
Not the best part of a MK V the air con  :sad1:

danishmkvgti:
I forgot, the way to see what pump you have

This is the sanden pump on my car, note the nonpainted metal springs at the side of the wheel



This is a spare zexel i have, it all black on the side of the wheel.





Cheers
