Episode 5 in the Polo 9n (2002-2009) repair series shows whats involved in re-gassing the air conditioning system.
The process is the same on most modern cars but the low pressure inlet may be in a different location.
If you plan to carry out this job I hope you will find this video helpful.
Be careful when working on your car. This video shows how I carried out the job but I cannot accept responsibility if you do it wrong and harm your car or yourself.

Your starter motor isn't disengaging from the flywheel properly when you start, hence that weird noise

Since when was it this easy to recharge the A/C?

@johnsanchez6361 Жыл бұрын

Spent hours looking on my 2000 polo just to find it doesn't have a/c I feel stupid

If it was a Porsche with no A/C they would have an RS badge on the back and charge £20000 more for it.

in my car when AC on, sometimes small fan OFF but sometimes ON..when Fan OFF AC not cold... what is the promblem? thank you for your answer

@AstonishingGlasgow 3 жыл бұрын

You need the fan on to blow the cold air into the car. Im pretty sure the AC pump stops turning when the fan is off to the AC condenser is doing nothing.

@ranggabudi2034 3 жыл бұрын

So the problem is in AC pump? So the system is when AC pump running it will triger small fan to running ?

@AstonishingGlasgow 3 жыл бұрын

No. You don't have a problem. If the fan is off the AC is designed not to work. You need to turn on the fan if you want AC air.

Isnt the air con meant to be a seal system ie ur ondenser might have a leak so isnt refelling it pointless?

@AstonishingGlasgow 4 жыл бұрын

Could be but if the condenser had a leak I would only have expected the fix to work for a short time but it is still working now. I suspect that after 20 years there is a dry seal somewhere that is causing a tiny leak which over time drained the system. Tracking down this tiny leak will cost more time and effort than re-filling when needed though next time I will treat the system to a leak fix and oil treatment. I didnt this time as the system may have had a catastrophic leak and it would have been a waste.
