Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Shame that didn't cure it, but back to your original post and symptoms, those are identical to that sensor TSB apart from the time interval. My aircon would work for 15-20 mins, then the airflow would drop off while the blower carried on. I had to switch Econ on (i.e. aircon off) for 10-15 mins and...

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Finally got panel off and fitted replacement sensor - sadly no improvement so back to the drawing board again. At least I now have the later style sensor fitted which I guess is no bad thing.

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

A pic I posted a while ago with the panel off is in this thread: http://www.ukpassats.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=80747&p=656266#p656266 That screw engages in a metal clip, probably no harm in gently trying to pull it away. You'll need the driver's seat fully to the rear to unclip the p...

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Replacement sensor (new type) finally arrived - 5 days late! Now I can't get to the old sensor.. That T20 screw is refusing to budge so any thoughts welcome. The screw is just turning round but not actually coming out - don't want to risk damaging anything so fix is on hold for now. :roll:

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

That sounds like a real possibility so I've ordered a second hand one (latest version) from Germany. Should be here Monday so I'll update after I've fitted and tested it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Do you know where the cabin interior air temp sensor is located Mitch?

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Fuses have been checked but not sure about relays. I wouldn't know where to start on the relays. Would have hoped the aircon specialist would have checked these but maybe not..

Re: Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

Thanks for the detailed reply Mitch. The aircon guy who fitted my new compressor had run VAGCOM and his own diagnostics kit to diagnose my system but couldn't find any problems and there were no faults coming up either that were related to the aircon. I've also already run the function test that you...

Aircon cool air flow closes off in cabin after 20 seconds

I have a strange aircon issue where cold air flow in to the car interior stops after about 20 seconds. If I turn the air con off (with the off or econ button) and then back on again I get cold air for another 20 seconds and that's how I've been keeping cool in the recent hot weather! When I turn Eco...

Re: Superpro Anti lift Bushes

I know it's been a while since your original posting but I wondered how you got on Panderoo with your suspension mods since the performance upgrade? I've had my B6 upgraded and am having same issues with wheelspin. Was recommended by R-Tech to fit Powerflex Anti-Lift Kit as well as lower engine moun...
