air conditioning

Hey everyone, so my ac doesn’t seem the coldest anymore, a little bit of a back story, it was a shuttle and it’s had the lot ripped out including the rear hvac (this maybe from there) had it degassed etc, but today I found this in the shed. Now the van has been apart for a while now for...

What is the attached picture telling me? I assume I need an Aircon regas but I can't see any reference to this gauge in the manual.

I'm looking at a VW shuttle with 9 seats, it has everything but full air con throughout. Is it possible to installed the full air con through the shuttle? I know it's probably a big job if possible, I'm just wondering HOW big of a job it is? Cheers

Having owned my Caravelle for four years I've been trying to work out the heating controls for the rear passenger area and have come to the conclusion something isn't quite right. The first problem is that even when the correct button is selected in the overhead panel (shown in the image) for...

Hi, We think we have found 'the van'...although it doesn't have A/C. The age vans we have been looking at don't have carplay, so were thinking of getting it enabled retrospectively. Some of the companies that offer the carplay service offer an air con fit. Does anyone have any experiences of...

Hi! I’ve got water in my passenger footwell from what seems to be a clogged condensate drain. I’ve reached this point from the awesome info in the forum, but need a bit more detail… How do I actually remove the drain plug to clear it? I know where it is and can lift the edge up, but I don’t know...

Hello fellow T6 owners!!! Am I correct in thinking that this is just a faulty seal on the A/C compressor solenoid? Has anyone else had this issue before, if so was it an easy fix? I believe it's a Garage job as the system will need draining and refilling I'm just after reassurance

Hi I have a T5.1 Shuttle that has been converted. The air con doesn't work so i took it for a re-gas and was told it had a leak from the rear of the van. The garage has had a look and said that the expansion valve has been blocked off with a rusty plate, two bolts and a load of sealant. The...

Hi I have a t6 done 125000m that has developed a low pitch drone noise like a bearing going while idling, took the belt off and ran it up which made the noise go away so span all pulleys alternator etc and all seem good but when trying the ac pump it seemed to have a fair bit of drag in it but I...

Help please guys and gals I have bought an aftermarket head unit , when I connect adaptor harness and power radio on head unit works perfectly but air con keeps turning off and on . I have tried 2 leads and still have same problem when I reconnect old factory head unit air con is fine again any...

Hi all, Could someone tell me what this rubber part with a small nozzle on it is? It's located on the firewall. Pics attached. Appears that my washer fluid may be leaking out of it. Really appreciate any help. Matt

Has anybody tried fitting an electric a/c compressor like this? https://speedyairspares.com.au/product/12v-dc-electric-air-conditioning-compressor-12cc-r134a-4000rpm-comes-with-a-mounting-bracket/ I'm thinking I could potentially replace the existing compressor with another alternator to...

Needing to replace the A/c compressor on my 2017 T6. Quoted £1200 from VW for part only. Anyone know of any other places to try for price. Only need part, can fit and recharge system on my own. Thanks.

Anyone Else have a t6.1 can you check if your info display actually shows air conditioning off when off on the main controls? Mine never turns off and if at cold it’s freezing! Doesn’t matter what function is on it never changes unless I switch off the fan to 0!!

Hello, Nice to meet you, I am a proud driver of vw t6 from the Netherlands. I have a weird problem with my airco. When I start my car, the airco works fine blowing cold air. After ca five minute it stops. Blown air is not cold though outside temperature. When I stop the car, switch it off and...

Hi Guys, Currently having issues with my Air Conditioning. AC looks to be running as it should but no cold air coming from blowers. Checked with diagnostics tool and that was the code I got. Dropped the under tray to reveal the compressor, checked over the connectors but all looks normal...

I've not been using the van much lately, and it can be parked up, sometimes for weeks in a garage. Whenever i do use it though, there always seems to be quite a lot of clear water where the van has been standing- usually below the front bumper area. I've always assumed that the underside of...

My t6 has aircon fitted as standard, I had it re gassed around 6 weeks ago and it was ice cold ever since the last few days, it was intermittent would work one day not the next and now it's just like warm air. I ran live data and it's at 9/10bar when AC is on which makes me think its not a leak...

Was going to swap the rad while I was in here but it looks OK. It's well protected with the ac and intercooler. No gas in it so I'm swapping then getting it vac tested again before gassing. Lovely day for it!
