I presume it’s got the climate control system and if it’s not blowing cold air out the vents as in air that is colder than the 20°C+ heat we’re having at the moment, then chances are that the air conditioning isn’t working and not cooling the airHi all,

I can't turn it up and it gets hot so I don't think it's the controls..OR there is an issue with the controls within the dash..
Ok what's your suggestion do a re gas? I put it to16 degrees and it wasn't cold.. does that make senseI presume it’s got the climate control system and if it’s not blowing cold air out the vents as in air that is colder than the 20°C+ heat we’re having at the moment, then chances are that the air conditioning isn’t working and not cooling the air
Unlikely there is anything you can do yourself so the only option is to book it in somewhere for a regas and then take it from there.Ok what's your suggestion do a re gas? I put it to16 degrees and it wasn't cold.. does that make sense
True mate although shouldn't it blow cold air when your reduce the temp?Unlikely there is anything you can do yourself so the only option is to book it in somewhere for a regas and then take it from there.
Chances are on a 10 year old fiat if it’s never had a regas is probably now due
Physics..True mate although shouldn't it blow cold air when your reduce the temp?
CheersPhysics..
If it was 15'c outside..and you dialled in 22'c.... it wouldnt warm the air until the engine coolant had warmed
So..to drag 20'c air down to 16'c in the cabin you need to Cool it
Thats the job of a Refrigerant...
Its a Gas in a sealed system on the car...
BEFORE 'topping it up' the system should be checked on a machine to ensure there are no major leaks.
The gas is nasty stuff..and expensive
Groupon..etc offer good discounts..
My 2013's were around £60.. discounted to @£35
Newer cars are double that... as they use a different gas.
Only now just seen this.True mate although shouldn't it blow cold air when your reduce the temp?
