• Ford Mondeo III (2000 - 2007) - 05 2.0 a/c fan not working 26 Jun 2009 (Forum)
  Hi The fan on my TDCi is not working. This means my air con works only when I'm on the move. Stop in traffic and it goes off and warm air. I've been chasing this prob for a few weeks now and it's really starting to bug me. Somebody on the Mondeo forum said replace the fan switch. Prob now
• Infested 13 Oct 2005 (Forum)
  have the air con on recirculated because I like the car cold *My mate's house is in the middle of a field and next to a forest where my car's always parked. Any connection? * The car doesn't smell great - kinda like there's been someone sleeping rough in it (they haven't!!) but there's a week's
• Vectra MIL light (still on) 10 Oct 2002 (Forum)
  this was mass air flow meter, as this had cured similar symptoms on a customer's Astra. Much faffing by the dealer later, cleaning and divvying around, they suggested a new mass air flow meter was needed. This has now been fitted. Result bit like the curate's egg, good in parts. All the bad driveability
• Hard Use Electric Car Range 16 Mar 2021 (Forum)
  this weekend from Kingston, W London, to Romford, East london. On the way back, at night, cold, wet, I'd have had headlamps on, air con + heating, radio, phone charging,  and stop and start driving for 2.5 hours - covering just 22 miles.I really wonder how long the battery would last stop and go
• Vauxhall Zafira - Zafira b recall work and missing heater fuse 17 Jan 2021 (Forum)
  . After some recent investigation I have checked the fuse box and realised fuse 4 is now missing ( heating and air con). Could it be that bristol street motors have not done the recall work because I remember they kept saying on the day they had loads of other work to be done on other cars
• Audi A6 - Car Quality 17 Mar 2018 (Forum)
  companies either upgrade the carpet & charge an extra few pound which means better quality looking cars carpet wise for longer or give the customer an option to upgrade on purchase like they do for colour, air con & all the add-ons.  
• Dream car? 4 Jan 2016 (Forum)
  I have been thinking about what my next car would be and trying to decide what my 'dream car' would be. Sitting in traffic one day, I thought about my current car... it has a heater, air con, a radio, it's cheap to run, realiable and it'll get to 15mph pretty quickly. What more could I want when

  Is newer better when buying a used MINI? 16 Apr 2015 (Ask HJ)
  I'm torn between buying two near identical MINI Cooper Ds: A 2009 model that has air con and cloth seats and a 2007 model which has the whole shooting...
• Renault Scenic (2003 - 2009) - 04 1.9dci Heater blower not working on "4" 3 Dec 2013 (Forum)
  The Scenic's heater blower has stopped working when the fan is set to position 4 (maximum). It works fine on 1,2 or 3. This is the manual air-con system, not the full blown climate control. I'm guessing it's the switch, but this being my first canbus wired car, am slightly nervous about testing

• Peugeot 307 (2001 - 2007) - Compare 7 seater models 5 Dec 2008 (Forum)
  miles on the clock (does the AC stand for air con?) I have looked at various web pages for these 2 cars and the information seems to vary slightly. As the body style and layouts etc are pretty much the same, can anybody advise what the main difference is between these 2 models,apart from engine size
• What Credit Crunch? 11 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  of a new one. Obviously, prices in England are better as per this website. One particular dealer is claimimg to be 'beating the crunch' up here... but they are advertising special offer cars at the same price as they were before all this happened.

• Dad finally considering a new ( his last ) car 24 Jul 2008 (Forum)
  by both my mum and him when they go to one car in about 5 years. What he has asked is what can he get that has decent load capacity, cruise control, automatic and air con, but with as low as possible CO2 and decent mpg? He doesnt want to spend more than 15k if he can help it but would like a longish
• Ford Ka - Cam swap 26 Mar 2007 (Forum)
  !). I'll try and do a mini blog on here of progress, but the only thing I've never worked on is air con. Haynes are doing the "you'll die" bit if the a/c isn't depressurised by a grown up, but as it isn't working anyway is it reasonably safe to stick a long pointy thing into the service ports to check

  it should be cheap. )I wondered if anybody had experience of water damage - I suppose if somehow water got down the air intake because the bow wave was like that of a cross chanel ferry it could be a big problem. (bent con rod ?) On the other hand is it possible that one of the common rail injectors has

  at? I did post on here recently about a 1999 Laguna 1.9TD estate I saw on ebay but rapidly lost my enthusiasm after reading everyone's comments! I'd like something reliable and economical with air con, ABS and a CD player, in other words, a lot of car for not a lot of money! TIA.

  it, and she can use the bangeer to get experience before getting her a proper car.......but if she does have a crash I don't want her to be in some tin can! Also if she is gonna be driving me around, i need air con, and I hate the idea of her driving around in a potentially lethal tin can with no creature
• Renault Scenic Tdci auxilliary belt 9 Jan 2006 (Forum)
  Anyone out there tried to change the auxilliary (serpentine) belt on an '02 Scenic dci with air-con. A friend had a garage fit the above belt which a few days later decided to throw itself off the pulleys. Upon looking, it appears the belt was fitted one ridge misaligned over the pulley flange
