It's probably your aircon recirc flap

Common fault tbh.

For a while mine was cured by randomly pressing aircon buttons until it stopped.

HTH

I wonder if that's my problem - my aircon has suddenly started blowing much less cool.

It's also gurgling and hissing at me!

That sounds like like it needs regassing Rob

Mine did the gurgling before it was gassed

Well it is nearly five years old.

I'll find someone local who can do it. IIRC in the UK it's about 80 quid?

A little less these days going rate seems about £40-50 when i looked.

In the end my mate did for free:thumbup::thumbup:

V71 recirc flap motor will be going loopy! About £70 new from Skoda if you fancy changing it. Do a search on the forum for it and you'll turn lots up.
