Hi all. I'm having problems with my 2001 Passat V6 AC. The AC recently stopped working while I was driving. After the car was stopped for a while and cooled down, it started working again, but only for 5 minutes. It will not come back on until the car cools down. Before this recent issue the...

My AC doesn't work on my 2001 Passat GLX wagon V6 4motion. I checked what fuses were easily visible, checked line pressure, moved the compressor by hand, so it's not seized. Dug into the dash to look at relays (what a pain!) and found an empty spot. Everything that I saw online mentioned...

I have a 2004 B5 1.8t. Early this summer I had to have the heater core replaced. I was driving on the interstate and bam, mist starts coming out the vents. It was a hot day and the air was on. First the dealership replaced a coupling to the heater core. I made it 20 miles and mist started again...

The air conditioning on my B6 Passat never worked as expected ever since I bought it new in 2006. It has a climate control where I set the temperature to LO (lowest setting) and depending on the outside/inside temperature, it can take up to about 30 minutes before I start noticing somewhat...

hi there I recently started to have some issues with my air contioning when I turn it on it works for about a minute or so then the colling fan stop working and the cold air stop I charged it in a garage but was told that the compressor is bad even if the high pressure line has a good pressure...

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...

Hey guys, I've been trying to trouble shoot this fan not going off. I have a 03 Passat V6 4 motion. The fan just started staying on the other day and won't adjust down or go off now. I read everything I could find on the subject, like pulling out the relay, but that does not stop the fan. I did...

Hi! i wonder if anyone ever installed aircondition in a B5? i have a 99mod 1,9 tdi, but unfortunately it doesn't have air condition.. the car i was thinking to take all the parts from is a 99mod 1,8 synchro. it have electronic climate control can imagine its quite allot of work, but have anyone...

So last spring, I noticed that my air was not working very well, then after a couple weeks, was not blowing any cool air. So I assumed(mistake) that my coolant was low. I purchased a can of r134a and tried to fill it up to get it to the correct pressure to no avail. My compressor is not even...

Hello everyone, Lately I have been noticing that my Air Conditioning isn't cooling as it originally did. It only seems to be blowing cool air but not COLD like it should. In the afternoons when it's really hot here in Miami the car takes a longer time to blow cool air. The heater seems to work...

Nothing really turned up in a search for B3's re: air conditioning. Has anyone re-charged their B3 air conditioner with 134a? How did it go? How many bottles of 134a did you use?. Thinking of doing mine, and would appreciate any feedback. Thanks, Dan.

Hello all, I have a 2000 passat wagon with the 2.8 v6 with manual climate controls (not climatronic). The AC button did not work when we purchased the car, so we got it for a very good price. Me, figuring it was just a bad switch like I had happen to me in my last passat, assumed I could get...

2004 Passat GLX V6 FWD and Climatronic I recently developed a very tiny pinhole in the line that runs from the compressor to the dryer. Replaced the line and the dryer then pulled a hard vacuum for 30 minutes as per the instructions found an automotive air conditioning website; then turned off...

Air Conditioning issues, vents 'hiss' when the A/C is on So we just bought an 04 B5.5V TDI and when we were test driving the car, I didn't actually notice this issue since we didn't do extensive driving and I wasn't listening for this problem specifically. So basically what I found after the...

So the air conditioning won't turn on. I didn't hit anything, I started up the car about a week ago and it would turn on intermittently (VERY much so) and then turn off. It blew really cold air while it was on. The light won't turn on, and I have a feeling it's because of this knob issue. It...

Howdy. '05 B5.5 wagon calling. Manual A/C (non-climatronic) Here's the rub. My air conditioner heats fine, but can't seem to blow cold air at all. It used to run like a champ; then the a/c started working sporadically, and now it's not going whatsoever. I've checked to make sure that the fan...

Ok, so my air conditioning was blowing air that was barely lower than ambient car air temp. So, after reading some of the threads here on PW, I decided to take the risk and add some r134 from the instant charge cans. After reading the many warnings about overfilling, my intent was to only add...

Recently I had to have the alternator on my 04 GLX 4mo "variant" with 2.8 V6 replaced by the dealer (yikes!) since I didn't have the tools or time to put the car into "service position" (which sounds a little kinky, btw). While there, I asked the dealer to check the A/C since my VAG-COM said...

Here's my problem... my AC compressor kicks in and 'seems' to function. One of the lines going through the firewall is cold (the small one) where I believe the big one should be cold. Inside when the AC is on LOW you would expect cold air to come out of all vents, but I am only getting...
