Golf V R32 :: Climatronic Blows Hot Air
On start up, on the hot day, A/C takes 4-5 minutes of driving before starting to cool. Not much cold air coming out once it get's going to.... IF Climatronic is switched OFF, then as you drive you can feel hot air coming out from vents and actually fogging up windscreen on the rainy day.

I've looked all over online about this and spent hours tinkering with it but I can't seem to figure it out. I have an '01 gti glx with the lcd climatronic. fully functional but none of the backlights work for the buttons or the screen and I'm wondering what at all it could be... Not a hugely pressing issue, just annoying trying to figure out which button is which at night..

My display on the MFA and Climatronic panel is really wrong (-44C now). I was taking a look at the sensor in the front left grille but the only thing that's changing into the readings with my Vag-Com is the outside temperature sensor but not the displayed temperature.
I didn't find any other sensor on my car. Nothing into the rain tray...
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Climatronic Test With Two Error Codes 04B6 And 0318
I recently bought this golf and well gotta say very happy with it, W reg so 2000 model and it the 1.9 TDI SE variant, 29,000 miles and only one owner from new. But like many before me I have a air con issue.
So here's what I have looked at. Done the climatronic test with two error codes
04B6 Standing Time Signal
0318 Air Conditioner Pressure Switch
The blower works inside etc, but only blows warm air. I can hear the engine rev's change when I push the Econ button. So car is pretty mint but 15 years old, where should I start looking.
Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Manual Climatic Control Upgrade To Climatronic - Single Zone Operation
The 2010 JSW si identical to VW Golf MkVI in respect of interior and controls. Unfortunately TDI trim is not available with dual zone climatronic - I ended up with manual Climatic control.
I compared the climatic and climatronic panels for MkVI and found out that the back side connectors looks compatible - the only difference is that Manual Climatic has dummy data communication port (I checked it physically myself after dismantling the panel) and has only one control output socket (The climatronic panel has two exactly the same identical sockets - dual zone control I suppose).
A simple swap of other control panels will work to provide single zone automatic operation of air condition system in my 2010 VW JSW TDI?
Touareg :: Car Resets All Programs To Factory Defaults
I've had my T-reg for almost a year with no problems....until now. I recently bought another car with a tire pressure monitoring system. When I park the two cars close together the TPM on my T-reg picks up signals from the other car, gets confused and (apparently) resets all programs (lights, locks...everything) to factory defaults. I took it to the dealer for this problem twice and they are clueless.

I noticed that no matter whether it's on recirc or vent when I shut down the car, our '06 Touring's HVAC will always default to recirc when I turn it on. Is there a way to keep it from doing this? It drives me nuts, because I hate having recirc on.

I noticed when i swap to 4 hi. The AC defaults to defrost. I have read this is a possible vacuum leak. Well after driving for about a mile the AC goes back to vents " while still in 4 hi" does this mean my hubs are sticking and finally engaging? Or still probably have a vacuum leak?

View 14 RepliesTiguan :: Climatronic - Turn On Without AC
For the greater part of the year I don't use the A/C in the car. I find it frustrating that when I want the fan or some heat the A/C will kick in when I press the Auto button. I turn the Climatronic off when I drive with the windows or top down (sunroof in the Tiguan) and it seems silly to have the A/C cycle on for the few seconds it takes me to reach over to press the A/C button to turn the compressor off. I read the manual and checked options in VAG COM but couldn't figure out how to get it to not do that. I accidentally figured it out yesterday.
If you want to go from Off to Auto without activating the A/C compressor, don't press Auto; press Off. Yes, that's counter-intuitive because it's already off. But pressing Off turns the Climatronic on in the auto mode but does NOT automatically turn on the A/C compressor. At least that's how it works in my 2012. And yes, I do run the compressor at least once every month, even in winter, to keep the system lubricated.
Passat (B5) :: Putting A Climatronic System In The Car
I have a passat B5 2.3 VR5 with aircondition and I have been thinking about to build a climatronic system in the car I did have a climatronic in my old passat B5 V6 TDI and I was so happy about it, The refit part are not the hardest thing, but what about the wiring part? do people rebuild their own wiring system, or is there made a wire kit to the climatronic system.

Passat (B5) :: Climatronic System Not Blowing Heat
I noticed about a week ago (on a cool morning) that my Climatronic system would not blow heat. I played around with it briefly by adjusting the temp settings and how the blower was working.
If I set the temp to High heat would blow out for like a minute but anything else would just blow cold air.
If I set the temp to High and turn Econ on I would get hot Air.
No other settings would generate heat. I VAG Commed my car and there were not fault codes!!!
I took my car to my normal indie shop and they also were puzzled by this. They re-ran a vag com and nothing for them either. The heater core was flushed recently with the resting of my coolant system when my TB was done.
There is no sign of leakage for the heater core but I'm super puzzled to what the problem may be.
Passat (B5) :: Clicking In The Dash / Climatronic Died
Halfway into a 2 hour trip away from home my climatronic died. The display is blank and no air is moving through any of the vents. This was a big problem since I encountered a heavy rainstorm and my only means of clearing the windshield was my handkerchief. I checked the fuse and it seems fine. There was clicking in the dash prior to this happening. I looked at the relay and it seems fine but I wouldn't know what a "bad" relay looks like.
View 2 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Climatronic / AC Failure For No Real Reason
My climatronic/air conditioning just failed on me for no real reason that I can tell. It was working perfectly this morning.
Now, the system blows only warm air, and on the display where it *should* say the outside temperature, it displays "--0" and then the Celsius sign.
This is a 2002 GLX 4mo, if that makes a difference.

Passat (B6) :: 2006 Climatronic - Cold Air Is Just A Little Too Warm To Be Working Correctly
I have a 2006 Passat 2.0T (UK Model), and I'm having trouble with both the outside temperature reading and the climatronic's cooling ability. When I bought the car the air-con was blowing cold and warm air without any problems, but the "cold" air is just a little too warm to be working correctly. I've had the system re-gassed but this didn't solve anything.
As I said, all the features of the air-con work perfectly, it's just the cold air just isn't cold enough - so it seems to me that the compressor is working fine. Also, the outside air temperature reading on the MFD reads about 5-10 degrees too warm. Would this have anything to do with the air-con issue?
