i would need some guidance on what i can check however @sierrafery said that there is no way i can access motors or the flaps without total dash removal :(

im thinking about adding valves to open / close during summer/winter to avoid having to remove the dashboad. adding valves to the existing factory setup is very hard but i was thinking about using the blanked off hoses originally used for the egr cooler. Any reason why that wont work? I see that...

dont really understand how it works but i guess i did lol

Did a little experiment, bypassed the heater matrix and now i have cool air coming from both sides. Still think ita not great but there is definitely a problem under the dash. Question is: is it easy to fix whatever is wrong or is it better to get a working ac unit and replace the while thing...

i guess it needs to be a U-shaped piece of pipe? since id rather not remove those old hoses, is it very hard to access the flap? do i need to remove the entire dashboard?

is it very hard to access the flap? do i need to remove the entire dashboard?

looking at this diagram again, blocking one side of the coolant will block coolant flow to other parts so its not a great idea i think

thanks for the info. the idea behind blocking the coolant is to proof the theory and so that I can have a/c without too much work for the summer months as the the next available slot is in november

are you aware of where this flap which opens and closes hot air is? i mean if i dont need to take the whole dashboard apart id rather check/replace it than mess with old coolant pipes :D

Thanks for the replies. Went to an aircon specialist. Understandably they are very busy atm but he recycled the gas and checked for vacuum. System had the right amount of gas and the pressure seems good. High and low pressure are hot and cold as they are supposed to. He thinks the heating...

Experimented a bit and there is def a difference even between passenger and driver side. Although neither are very cold passenger feel cool at least while driver side is warm. I think i may have more than one issue, first being ac not cooling enough and second some climate control valve is stuck...

Ac def kicking in as i can feel the difference in the power lol. If im not crazy i think the rear ac are a little colder than the front ones! Although neither are very cold compared to what it used to be. No ac is not an option for me, its 38degrees atm and will be very close to 45 in august

hi all, so a bit of an issue with my ac not cooling. things i hecked/replaced: 1. new ac compressor as it was leaking, replaced with genuine. also replaced drier. 2. new condensor 3. uprated spal fan 4. no serious leaks, topped with gas, low pressure and high pressure seam fine. 5. no error...

yes its also been remapped, so i guess that might also be it. If you are talking about the inputs i can see when i turn cruise control on or off

no, nothing happens when i press any of the buttons, although i can see the trigger in nanocom, so the buttons and connections seem fine.
