air con Mates we have to have the air con working in our cars to make it a complete superior car. If the air con is not working, then it makes the car uncomplete.
Well Craig thinks my aircon seemed to work when I bought the zed..But I think it was screwed and it was just the cold winter nights air.. Got it checked out about 2 years ago..and was told it has holes all through the system..so was expecting to pay $1000+ to repair..So I said "screw that"..and yes I hate being in a stinking hot car..Considering getting it done again..I'm guessing it's a dash removal job?
Mine was great... Just de-gassed when I got the engine swap and never got around to getting it gassed since.
no dash out shouldnt need the dash out unless its the pipes and evaporator behind the dash that have holes in them. If its the pipes and plumbing in the engine bay, its much much easier.... Cheers
Hmm..maybe I should get it checked out again..to find out exactly what has holes in it..so if it's not a dash out removal..is it easy enough to change the pipes in the engine bay
mien works but on really hot days (like 34+ degrees) the only way for it to make a noticable difference is to make it recirculate
mine still worksq all though admitadly i noticed that mine wasnt that cold, a quik trip to the auto-electrician found that my thermal fan wasnt workin properly, but thats fixed and it works great again.. of course times where the car has been sitting in 40 degree heat it takes a little while to get goin, but thats rarely the case
I'm gonna try that Hychill stuff too. I'm gonna get a few quotes, let me know the sort of prices you get...I'm trying JVC auto in Spearwood to start.
I retro fitted mine when I imported it as it had to be degassed and dryer removed as part of import regulations. It went just as good as any other until I pulled out the entire system when I redid my engine bay a couple of months ago. Just hope when I gas it up again with a new dryer it works like it used to :zlove:
mine seemed like it was going to seize for over a year, dad got sick of the little noise so he just cut it.....i dont know how u can live with the hhhheat
On a HOT day i'm cool as, like a freeza yet on the other hand when COLD day still like a freeza heat no workies trying to solve that problem
The guy where we got it quoted did reckon it had holes throughout the whole system and required a complete dash removal...thats why it was going to cost so much because of the time required to remove the dash. But I reckon a second opinion would be good. At least you've got your heater for winter now, halfway there Cheers! Craig
From memory... All the bits and pieces I removed (canister, hard lines, compressor etc...) it weighed over 20kg.
