Post by: g0lfgti on 13 July 2005, 10:55

Hi, i have a mkiv golf gti. the air con since i bought it a year ago has always blowed out just slightly cool air not the usual ice cold air you would expect. also the speed it blows it out at is abit sh*it. anyone have any ideas what the problem might be.

150!!!!! whoa..

try your local drive in tyre places..   know national tyre's do it for either a flat 50 or 60 quid..

theres no way of telling how much there is in there until its too late..
