Just picked up my girlfriends new car, a rather nice 1.4 16v Eleganza, and after reading the manual there is something I'm not sure on.
When set to "Full Auto" with the air con button illuminated is the air con compressor running constantly or only when it is required?
If the system is clever enough to switch it on only when it is needed I'll happily just push auto and be on my way, however if it is like my Octavia which runs the compressor all the time I'll make sure to switch it off myself to save the drop in fuel economy.
Thanks in advance
