air con

Took the ibiza (FR 2.0 TDI) for an air con check before regas as it was not working and was told a pipe had burst at the bottom which is why it leaked so they couldn't regas it. Does anyone know if this is a fairly easy fix or better to get mechanic to do it as they said its at the bottom? i...

Hi all I'm owner of the CUPRA FORMENTOR VZ 2022. (This car has air outlets in the back passengers space too.) Usually it's just me (the driver) in the car; and therefore the rear outlet of the air conditioner is not usable and can be fully closed. Therefore, I wonder if it is possible to...

hi all, i'm trying to make my ibiza as light as possible for track use, and next on my removal list is the air con. just wondering if anyone has done this, or has an idea on what has to be removed all together. i've been told it's as simple as swapping to a smaller aux belt and remove all...

So I’m running through a problem that I can’t seem to solve since last summer, basically my ac was working fine, not great cooling but does the job, then ac clutch exploded, so I changed the whole compressor, then the new clutch on the compressor failed as well, made sure no gas leaks were...

Seat Cordoba 1.6 .cool S (2000) Still running great mechanically but for years has had that well-known issue of the radio coming on by itself, requiring me to remove the blue fuse when the car was not is use, as a precaution. In recent months, (with the fuse in) the air con started firing up by...

Hi guys, Recently picked up my new Leon (FR 1.5 TSI 150 2020) and I can't figure out if there is an issue or it's just me missing something... Basically, if I set different temperatures in different climates, either in auto or manual, the car seems to have a mind of its own and pump hot one...

Hi everyone, First time posting here so grateful for any responses. I have noticed that my radiator fan on my car isnt kicking in at all. So far I powered it directly from the battery and it does work. But bridging two of the three pins on the radiator temperature sensor does not start. I am...

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this thread. I am not a car person admittedly so if I get any parts wrong or misstate anything I apologize in advance! I have an 'issue' with my radiator fan. My car is still under the SEAT used and approved warrantee so recently I took it back to be...

Hi all, Any idea how the below could have happened. I noticed it after cleaning my car interior but a few hours after. I only use designated interior wipes and micro fibre cloth to clean the area. It looks cracked but doesn't feel that way. Its on both sides. :( Any advice - anyone know if...

I have a 2015 Seat Leon 1.2 TSI ST, It has 108,000KM on it. So about a few months back a rattling/whining noise started coming from the engine bay, it sounded like it's from the passenger side, at first i thought it was a normal sound it wasn't too loud and also thought it could be because of...

I have a squeaking noise that sounds like it's coming from the passenger side air vent, it does it for a bit when the cars cold and it's does it when turning the car on full lock too. I've shoved a screw driver down the vent to give things bit of a nudge but I've not felt anything loose or...

Hello, I don't know if anyone has had or has a similar issue to this. But for some reason my right vents (driver) don't produce as much heat as the left vents (passenger). I have plugged a diagnostic tablet into the OBD connection and checked the actuator outputs and vent temperatures. The...

Hi, As the title suggests, I can now smell a new cigarette smoke/something foosty from the air con. I don't smoke, I don't allow any passengers to smoke in the car, plus the smell weirdly only appeared once I got in the car after finishing work (the car journey there smelled fine :shrug:)...

Hi guys My leon has an heating problem, please can someone help? The blowers only get luke warm all throughout the temperature range (even on 29 degrees), no matter what power I have the blowers on, and this is still the case after I've been driving for over an hour. There's also an...
