  1. Hi all I think my aircon re-circulation actuator is a bit stuck as the aircon only seems to work properly in re-circulation mode. Is this actuator easy to reach or would it need a garage to check it ? It's a 2008 2.7TDi model. Bipman
  2. I've got a 66 plate A4 avant. Recently the air con is showing as off when the engine is on. When I try to change it to on or eco they are greyed out and I can't select them. I can select eco or on when just the ignition is on but I'm not sure if it's actually working. After a bit of googling it either needs as regas, a new pressure switch or an new compressor. Anyone else had any similar problems??
  3. Hi All I just joined today, partly because I have a problem with my 1999 A3 1.8t quattro. Yesterday I had the cam belt replaced, and the garage also replaced the other tensioners and the water pump and replaced all the coolant. Last night, I did a 20 mile journey and when I switched off the engine, the radiator fans kept going. After about 15 minutes and a bit of panic-induced googling, I disconnected the battery. I spoke to the garage this morning, as it seemed too much of a coincidence that this should happen on the first journey after the work they had done. I was told 'well, it's an old car and these things happen' I would have been more willing to accept this, if they hadn't done a less than brilliant job on fixing an electric window the week before, and to be honest, I have lost faith in them, even though they were recommended. I know nothing about cars, so I have to rely on people I feel I can trust, so I am throwing this out there to see if anyone has any advice. From the little I read, it seems that it could be a small job or a big expensive job to put right. Thanks in advance for your help with this, and please excuse the ramble - I'm a newbie!
  4. Hi, New to the club and needs some help. Does anyone know how to remove the rear air con control unit from my 2018 A5? The glass screen is damaged and I want to replace the unit before I return it at the end of the leases. Thanks for your help.
  5. Hi, My Audi A3 (registered January 2017) is due an air conditioning service and I am aware you can get it at most garages. I have seen widely fluctuating prices from £45 to £150, can i get any help as to why this is? I thought all cars got the same type of air, but have since heard that more premium cars require a different type of air (sounds daft). Can anyone please clarify? Just so I don't get ripped off! Thanks.
  6. Good morning, I have had an issue with my A3's air conditioning for about a year now.. i've just never needed to really get it sorted because.. well it's England, how often do you use Aircon haha. The Audi A3 I have is the SE TDI 1.6l 2013 model. Basically, it was working fine - air blowers normal and then the air flow turned ice cold when I turned A/C on. On a road trip to Newcastle last April I turned the A/C on and.. nothing. The blowers were fine but everytime I pressed the A/C button, the red LED came on as I pressed down on the button but the second I took my finger off the red LED went off. So, I thought I would take it to Halfords for a quick regas.. they regassed it and kept the thermometer in the vents to check the temp. It filled it and in doing so it meant that the red LED stayed lit after I had taken my finger off which lead me to think that it had simply ran out of "gas" in the A/C. But, it still wasn't going cold. Fast forward a year and I am still in the same predicament - Red light comes on and stays on but the blowers don't change air temperature at all.. not fun in this recent hot spell that we have had. And with two roadtrips coming up (one from Manchester to Newquay in August) I am looking ahead to trying to get this sorted in advance. Had a quick check around the car last night - now I must admit I am a complete novice when it comes to anything mechanical like this but I am pretty good at learning stuff and being able to fix simple things myself - I know where the fuses are and all that sort of stuff so I am not completely useless but definitely no expert. I identified what I am pretty certain is the compressor in the engine, driven by a belt at the front left of the engine. This belt is constantly running when the engine is on - not sure if that should be the case (i'd presume it should only be on when the A/C button is on?) but there is definitely a high pitched whirring sound added to the engine noise when the A/C button is pressed and i am 99% certain it is coming from what I think is the compressor so... in my eyes I am pretty sure the compressor is working as it should. My original diagnosis is that there could be a leak where the "gas" (sorry I don't know the name for it atm) in the A/C is just completely leaking out when filled. This is backed up by the fact that I think the compressor works as it should when it is pressed and having it refilled enabled the red LED light to stay toggled on when pressed as opposed to going straight out when you take your finger off the button. Audi want £60 just to look at the car and that's before they quote me a ridiculous price to change something that's probably quite rudimental. Any ideas? I looked at the fuses last night but I couldn't get the aircon one out (need some needle nose pliers) but with it sounding like the compressor is activating when the button is pressed I can't see it being an issue with the fuse or else nothing would happen, would it? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Lee
  7. This is the report produced from VCDS below - Is this the high pressure switch? If so, can i simply remove just the grill to change it? Also can anyone tell me which one I need without removing the existing?

  8. Had this problem on my a6 c6 where aircon didnt work good. Hot air was coming out from some wents and the rest was cold . Did a bit of resach and the problem was clogged up valve located under the plastic cover where the wiper motor is. Simple job took me 30 min and its woking like new . This youtube vid was very helpful
  9. checked re gassing, put pressure Guage on started engine ect put on low temp but guage is reading 55psi so no gas required according to chart so there is another fault can anyone help,
  10. My 11 plate A1 was off the road for a week in November, as an air conditioning pipe failed. The entire dash was stripped put during the process. Now my air conditioning has failed again and the car faces another period off the road. Am I the only one to experience this problem? Cheers, Stuart
