I'm working on a '15 Passat 1.8T, a/c will not blow cold. I have changed the compressor, the pressure sensor, expansion valve, and the dryer, still nothing. The high side and low side are at equilibrium when I start to charge it, around 70psi. The wiring harness to the compressor has low...

I have a 2003 Passat GLX V6 sedan. It has a climatronic system. Sometimes while I have the temp set to 64 degrees F, the air blows, but is not always cold. I verified that the compressor is coming on, and that the electric fan is working. I did a diagnostic on the climatronic and got the...

I have a 2002 Passat B5.5 V6 and recently I've been having problems with the A/C - the temperature displayed is at first correct and then will start dropping to anywhere from -49 °F to 11 °F. It's now been constantly in that range for the past few days and never displays the correct value. I...

Hello I have to re-fill gas in the AC unit every 6 months or so due to leaking. I understand it's a known problem with Passat B5s. On the last time I was at the shop, the guy said he could seal it somehow with some material* so that the leaks would stop. Is that recommended? or should I just...

The 4 position cabin fan switch does not work in in the first two positions. Neither the fan or AC is actuated. When you advance the switch to the 3rd and 4th position, the fan and the AC function normally. Any idea of what this is and how to fix it? I don't see how it could be a fuse issue...

I'm not sure how to explain this so moderators feel free to step in here and clean this up if necessary. My AC wasn't working on two of my vehicles, one a Passat and one a Civic. I recently bought one of those freon-in-a-can rechargers and recharged the systems. You can read the Passat part of...

I have been using this thread for months now to solve problems that I encounter. After searching extensively on this forum and others I finally broke down and joined so I could ask the question myself. The air conditioning on my Passat lately has been less than stellar. The air usually starts...

I searched the threads and cannot seem to find a solution to this problem for the B6: 2006 Passat 3.6L Climatronic System Symptom 1: Car sits for 8 hours, After starting car, AC does not start blowing cold air for 5 -15 minutes. Once the cold air starts blowing, the AC behaves like it always...

Now that it's 90 degrees out on a daily basis, I've been using my AC. The only problem is it causes the car to stall. At first it was just in parking lots with the steering wheel on full lock, making me think that was too much demand from the engine so it stalled. But it then stalled when I was...

Hello. First Post in the b6 Forum here. 2006 2.0T Value Edition 73000 Miles A/C blows but not cold air. I've searched this forum and web and found many problems with the A/C in the early b6s. My first question would be which is the low pressure side valve? thick hose, thinner hose, blue cap...

I've analyzed my intermittent (now non functional ) A/C. The coolant was at normal levels, per the local repair shop. the relay and fuses were double checked; the electric fan functions normally. All evidence points to dead compressor (and several mechanically inclined people have seconded...
