I love me Superb, but have had an Issue with the Aircon/Heating pretty much for the last 3 years. Initially I believed that the Issue with the Aircon itself, as sometimes the car wouldn't cool down properly in the summer. At times I even felt like hot air coming from some vents, even when using the Aircon on full blast. I got it regassed and got a new switch/valve fitted, but only with limited success. Anyway, at the time it was a sporadic enough Issue that wasn't worth spending too much time or money on, especially as it is hardly ever hot here in Northern Ireland.

 

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be a sporadic Issue anymore, and now even happens in the current climate without the Aircon in use. Last night for example I had set the heating to 20C on both sides, but the car was really heating up. Upon further investigation I found the following:

 

- Of the 4 vents on the Dash 3 were blowing regular "coolish" air while the driver side one was blowing our really hot air

- The vents in the pillars all seemed to be of normal temperature

- The vents in front of the windows seem to be split in 3 parts, the left and the right ones were as far as I could make out of normal temp, but the middle one was blowing out really hot air

- Under the seats the passenger side was blowing out hot air, while the one under the driver seat didn't.

 

So all fairly random in terms of sides. Any idea what to look at or what might be responsible for this strange behaviour? Nothing worse then driving in a car that's too hot.

 

Thanks,
