this is for my car which has the ECON button

^^^^^^^ ditto.

I'll expect my average MPG to fly through the roof - well, above 25!  :laugh: - now I'm running my A/c tree-hugging, economy style!

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

I thought it was press the Econ button to turn the AC off, most stupid thing i have ever seen but hey gotta love the German brain behind that.

So back on topic, should I be worried that my windscreen aint fitted properly or should I stop being a little b!tch and just get on with it?

I don't think your windscreen isn't fitted properly, its probably just condensation that hasn't escaped and frozen over night.

Point to note however that the AC won't run if the outside temp is 5Deg C or less.
