Climate Control / Aircon

Post by Stefan0909 »

Howzit guys,

Well I need to find out, when I drive a constant speed with my climate control on, the aircon keeps me chilled, but once I hit traffic or town driving, that thing is not even dropping the degrees at all.

Can it be that I need the aircon regassed or what?

Given the low airflow in traffic, I'd check the aircon fan on the aircon radiator is working.
