Ibiza 2006 - Climate Control 22 May 2018 (Forum)
Do manufacturers, Seat in this case, routinely put dye in the air con system in the factory or is it an aftermarket thing when you get a regas? Son's climate has recently stopped working and I can't see any signs of a leak under UV. Also, on this model and I believe other VAG cars -

Ford Puma (1997 - 2001) - 98 1.4 A little stinky after AC has been used 2 Sep 2009 (Forum)
SWMBO's Puma becomes rather fragrant after using the air con. I suspect the drain is blocked as there is never a puddle of condensate under the car as there is under my own. Can anyone tell me where the drain outlet is located on the floor pan so I can give it a good rodding? -

Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 99 1.8 Temperature Gauge Goes Off After Car Starts 28 Jul 2008 (Forum)
Hi The temperature gauge needle drops off to the left moments after the engine starts, which i think then causes the two fans to start (including fan 2 even though the air con is off). The gauge appears to be working while the key is turned to the 'battery' position. Would be very grateful -

Mitsubishi Colt 4 Oct 2006 (Forum)
for about the same price and as well as a much more powerful engine, it comes with air con, so I think it is a much better buy. -

With the hot weather and the windows down (air con not working at the moment!) I've noticed a squeaking from what I think is a wheel, perhaps a front one on my '99, 87k 306 HDi. This appears to stop after a certain speed (perhaps 40mph?) and also lessens when the car has been running for a while -

Recently been looking around at used Merc C Class. Spotted a nice example - 99V C180 Elegance 5 spd tip auto with low miles. Imagine my surprise when making further enquiries to discover it had no air con. I'm amazed they were turning these cars out at 25k new in 1999 without a/c. Worse still -
