Hi all,

Problems with my little Rover 214 (new shape)...

The air con only produces warm and hot air.
I think the de-humidifier bit still works as it still aids demisting.

Any ideas of the exact problem and likely cost to fix?
Any help would be greatfully recieved,

Cheers
Chris

Question

It could be your pump but try this first
Switch a/c to re circ air, then try it on cold and see if it gets any colder
Hopefully your car should still be warrantied if there is a problem.

Or it simply needs re-gassing - I they're not used every so often, the gases escape.
Re-gassing is around £50, I think.

thanks for the advice guys

I've heard about the gas leaking out before... as a rule i usually have it running all the time... can the gas leak out when its on?

Oh well, as its a fitted extra, i can just use the sun roof as the weather is so good...

Cheers
Chris
