AC - Petrol Consumption ?

At constant M/way speeds and revs it will not use anymore than having it off. Its town driving and varying revs that make it more juicy to run, you'll lose approx 5%.

simply windows down 
Unless your trying to keep a sunday dinner frozen in the passanger footwell 

why use the footwell when the glove box doubles as a fridge...saves melted chocolate in summer

really doesnt, bag of malteasers became one HUGE one, not saying thats bad

on the mk5 its a fridge if you turn a key in the glove box and turn on the a/c...suppose you could also turn it up and keep ya chinese or curry warm on the way back from the takeaway if you wanted too

pressing the AC button on my Mrs' 1.6 Zafira is the opposite of a turbo boost button.
