air conditioning

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 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!

Hello, Hoping some experts can help me with this situation. Twice in the last 2 months the aircon in my T6 doesn't work properly. When you turn the dial for more power the blow noise gets louder but it doesn't blow more out of the vents. It's as if something under the dash is blocking the...

Anybody attempted to install/upgrade to cooled seats? Driving in hot weather is something I really miss from my old car…

We’ve had our T6.1 DSG since December and have been getting an average overall fuel consumption of 34 mpg. On a recent trip to the West Coast it was up to around 37 mpg. On Sunday we did a day trip of 90 mins of pretty similar driving and we got an average of 47 mpg and reached the dizzy heights...

Buongiorno a tutti, ho un fastidioso problema che in vw non risolvono.. dopo circa due ore che viaggio con il mio trasporter T6 esce aria calda da sotto lo sterzo all'altezza delle ginocchia e ultimamente si scalda anche la plancia all'altezza dello stereo. Qualcheduno sa aiutarmi? Good morning...

Hey all I'm looking for a replacement ac compressor. Obviously I know I can pay uber bucks and get one from vw. However has anyone had any success finding an aftermarket or re conditioned unit? Mines self destructed around the pulley luckily I noticed the noise quickly and investigated it...

Hi, hope someone can offer some words of wisdom. Long time forum lurker and researcher. I believe I’ve read the thread(s)and watched the videos on this, but I’m none the wiser. My blowers stopped working in my 2017 t6. I went ahead and replaced the 40a maxi fuse. As experienced by many, once...

After using the air con a few weeks ago it now seems to be on all the time regardless of whether the button is pressed (and light on). Van is 2018 startline with basic heating controls and aircon on a button. I’ve had a search via google and the forum search and not found anything specific...
