Whats better?

[richards golf]

i've got climatronic in my car and have noticed others have just the 3 dial air con,

Whats the difference and whats better? 

Sorry if stupid question!

[Ridg]

climatronic is automatic air con, as in the climatronic unit, will try and keep the cabin the set temperature.

manual air con, is set by the dial, as in if you're too hot you turn the dial to cold, if you're too cold you turn the dial to hot

climatronic was the more expensive option, but that doesn't mean it's better or worst as it's swings and roundabouts.

When mines on auto all it does is steam the fecker up! that cant be right?

Ridg pretty much covered it, climate just means you don't have to keep adjusting the dials and it will adjust it automatically and keep it (or at least try) at the set temperature.

I think climate control is better as I'm lazy.

The Mk4 climatronic tends to suffer with faults
