Default Golf MK4 GT Tdi aircon issue

Hello,

I have a GTTDi 130 bhp Mk4 golf with climate control. Recently however the aircon has stopped working, the fans still work however I believe the compressor is not switching on.

I took it to my garage and they said it doesn't need re-gassing. I have tried changing the pressure switch and the facia and neither has fixed it.

When the garage gave the aircon a direct feed (not using the facia) it did work and chilled the car

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong.

I have posted this on VW forums but had no replies atm.

Mike :-)

Prepare for wallet hammering, was five hundred for our Sharan, same system, they just arent suited to long term use like the a/c in Jap cars.

£500, what was that for?

If it's just the aircon pump you should get one off eGay easily enough

Make sure you check the part numbers, the last letter is different depending on engine
