Air con issues...any ideas?

Andy, pulled out and checked every fuse inside and under the bonnet yesterday, all of them were fine.

bacillus, the interior temp guage reading is fine too.

I have a feeling the fan's on the blink, as my mate said.  Thinking about it, I haven't heard it come on since I got the car.  What I'm going to do is keep an eye on the fan and the coolant temps (I stupidly forgot today whilst stuck in traffic at Silverstone), hopefully that'll be it.

Thanks for your suggestions guys!

I had this earlier after leaving Renault World Series. Aircon just wouldnt blow cold air, in spite of it working perfectly every day since we have bought it.

I gave up in the end and we opened the windows. After about 30 minutes i thought i would try it again, and low and behold, within 5 seconds the air was cooler than cool.

Sounds like a leaking sensor to me, happend with mine recently, seems fine now. Blows cold anyway, not freezing though.

TomB:
I actually spoke to the local air con specialist today and he told me to bring it down as he doesn't think its fan related.

I don't have the money for him to check it out yet, but I think its got to be worth an hour of his time to save me throwing a good fan.

pazz:
Its not the fan.  :rolleye:

If its an early MK5 theres a good chance that the compressor is seized.
