It rained heavily jus now about 7pm. After the rained, I drive off with air set to 25. the air blowing out is warm, then proceed to set to 22, fan get louder, but the air is blowing is still warm. Finally set to 18, the fan was blower very loud, but still warm air blowing out. Finally wind down the window, the the air outside is much cooler.
Wonder is there anything wrong with my air con? Should i make a appt wit TC to check out the aircon?
-
is ur aircon button on ?
-
hi i am not joking, my air con also feels not cold .. is it the rain? :confused1:
-
I drove back around 7:30pm, my air out is also warm, thought I the odd one out. :ohmy:
-
Hmmmmm... air con not cold tonight? Dat's strange... I noticed the same thing too this evening.
Wonder what is causing it?

i always set temp to 25, still very cold tonite. make sure compressor is on and you are not taking outside air.. should use the air circulation inside button
-

Put to Auto .. Checked
Inside circulation. Checked
-
just thinking aloud,
raining = poor visibility+ slippery = heavier traffic = slower speed. Heat trapped inside bonnet cant get flushed out due to start stop situations, heats up the aircon piping and voila, warmer air!
heh, dun flame me, not proven, jus thinking abit :bleh:
-
you are not alone.... this evening ard 6:30 driving under heavy downpour, normally my air-con setting is 25 & fan 1 bar, byright it sld too cool enough for me, somemore i ran under the rain in carpark to get my car, so i'm half wet... but i also felt warm tonight.... hahaha strange hor... setting to 24 with fan 2 bar & feel much better....
why har... all lation have same feeling on the same day & time.... :D
-
I experience this too this evening and also same experience with my previous car when the weather is cold and raining.
Think it is some kind of AI (artificial intelligence) thingy at work. Something like when the car "sense" that the temperature is cold, it trys to compensate. Had also experience the reverse in hot days when you can feel air-con very cold, even if you are caught in traffic jam. Something like that la. (Don't frame me hor.)
-
for my car, its permanently on cold unless i open the windows while driving. I disconnected the hot water supply, hence, whether its set at 18 or 32, the aircon blows out same temp :devil2:
-
My car air con also not cold today... :(
Just now when i drive back still not cold...
-
hmm seems like the only person who didnt feel that way would be me. Probarly due to me not having much aircon and not going for long enough trip as well as not been driving for past few days

hi!
i think there is a thermostat somewhere. think it will compare the temperature inside the cabin and outside and somehow cut off if outside is colder than inside. my car oso got such problem and always happen only during rainning days or outside is cold.
if u guys still feel it warm, try reduce the temp. mine always at 25C if this situation happen, i just lower it to 24C or lower then got cold air out liao lor ;)

I did the same thing. Usually set at 24, but lower it to 23 last night and could feel the cold air liao.
-
Look like most of the bros/sis here also face this problem. Me too had this problem especially in the evening. Need to turn the fan speed to 2 and temp to 23. Dun know if TCM can solve this problem?
-
I have a theory on my own now. If our body has adjusted to colder temperature outside such as a heavy rain in the evenining (Say 21 degrees). So any air that is blowing out at above 21 degree is felt as warmer.
Just a thought, no proof or whatsoever.
-
Woh so many people have this problem, mine seem ok 24 degree and fan 1 bar . Feel cold, but that is when I drive at 8 pm yesterday nite.

I really touch the air vents not only my side, even the passenger side, it warm.

Try again today? Just now the weather is hot. Air con is cooling.. :thumbsup:

Like that mean is ok no problem with our aircon system.
-
wha how come u all all set aircon around 24-25 one...
i set it as 23 for norm... then maybe increase fan speed if too warm...
cant help it... i think i have high body temp....
-

Yes, today back to normal. ;D

Cause you are a hot girl what. :yehyeh:
-
as long as outside whether is warm, our aircon will be cold. if cold outside then aircon will not be cold liao :(

not sure about cold weather air con not cold..but today, weather so so HOT!!! and my aircon not cold!! i tune all the way to 18 and on all the way up and yet still not cold..stuck in jam even worse..then after that when reach carpark got shade, the aircon start to turn cold...goodness me.. my car is black FYI...
-
Mine always set at 24 auto. Notice that aircon ok when on 'CLEAN' but not so cold when on 'ION'.

Maybe black take more heat, than other colour. :smile:

Hi Bro, How to set "CLEAN" and "ION"? Mine shows either "CLEAN" or "ION" by itself. Which button to select "CLEAN" or "ION"? Thanks.

I was going to ask this question too. :D
-
i think it automatically switches mode from CLean to Ion...
read it somewhere on the manual...
-
Yah...cannot choose one.Usually will change to "ion" after 15 mins...
-
Thanks to all for the confirmation. That's what I thought too.
-
but wat is the diff bet clean and ion ?
-
but wat is the diff bet clean and ion ?
Ionizer is for purifying the air ma.. When they detect impurities in the air, the ionizer will turn on by itself rite.. then they will clean the air by charging dust and smoke particles into positive or negative ions so that they can stick to a charged surface.. Then can get rid of them..
Larger impure particles will totally fall out of the air when two smaller impure particles of different charges clump together..
So I think since it does ionic charging.. so heat is required to gain/lose the electrons to charge the particles ma.. So I think air con becomes hotter during ion mode? :confused1:
But I think it is attached to our air con de.. so if on the air con.. it will be auto detecting if there's impurities.. So I dun think there's a way to turn it off w/o turning the air con off lei..
But I realise the ionizer often comes on only when I wind down window or open the door when the air con is turned on or when I fart in the car.. :bleh:
This 1 onli my theory hor.... I may be wrong... :zipped:
-

hmm..... must check it next time i fart in my car :bleh: hahaaaaaaa ;D
-
hmm..... must check it next time i fart in my car :bleh: hahaaaaaaa ;D
hahaha...dun over fart and let impurities come out as well :bleh: :bleh:......
-

Don't overwork the ionizer. Otherwise it sure breakdown. Then you got to tell TCM that it is spoil because you fxxx.

heh, dun flame me, not proven, jus thinking abit :bleh:
hahah yeah yesireeeee!!! its because most of the warm air is coming from ur engine, hot engine = hot air coming in even on a very cold day ....good explaination ken

Yesterday morning when I drive my way to Tan Chong Ubi Service Center from Woodlands, I noticed that the air-cond is blowing hot air and cold air in turns. Meaning hot air, then cold air, then hot air again, cold air again. Damn I think my air-cond spoil or something. So in the service sheet I report to them about this issue. The guy who always do my car when I send for service said the reason is because I did not turn on the circulation button (the button which looks like a u-turn sign) when air-cond is on.
So after I collected my car, the air-cond all ok. I normally set to 25 but when its too cold, I'll set to 26, all fan 1. The problem still there when I'm on my way back home from Bedok. Sigh...
This morning, I call the service guy. He said they'll do further testing to see what is wrong.
Any bros/sis got this problem?
-
My latio got problem, with hizzling sound below glove compartment...the air is cold but when I increase the blower for passengers behind, the air flow wont increase & only can heard louder noise from the centre (behind radio).
And I noticed my setting is 24oC, but the air coming out felt like 18oC. :confused1:
Anyone experienced this way? compressor malfunction? or blower malfunction?
-
bro, did u changed ur air con filter? if yes, did u DIY or ... check the filter cover, it may loose or even not locked.. :bleh:just guess niaa lah
BTW, how old ur latio? it's common that our latio air con comp CMI, just go back TCM and get it change lor :thumbsup:
-
No, I didnt change the aircon filter. My latio 1.5 yrs. what is "aircon comp CMI". Is it the compressor or the blower? or both?
-
for my car, its permanently on cold unless i open the windows while driving. I disconnected the hot water supply, hence, whether its set at 18 or 32, the aircon blows out same temp :devil2:
my last ride did the same....simple DIY job....
when driving up to KL at 5 in the morning.....finger almost frozen even on the smallest fan speed.......
windd down windows really noise....
i suppose every thing got it pro and cons....
jsut to share....
-

it's compressor
-
compressor so easily spoilt? But it stil working today. :confused1: Probably the previous day I drove longer distance and the compressor showed signs of going to break down soon. Am I correct? So tomorrow booking, got to get it change and hopefully they have stock for compressor. :D
-
My air con settled. Its "icing" problem. Open the bonet you'll see this white icing on the aircon pipe (http://).
Replaced evaporator and the sensor. ;D

No picture leh. :(
-
O! Hot Hot Day...yeah now my aircon set at 24oC starts to cool fast! Didnt notice it only after they change the evaporator (convert Liquid to gas) which was cloaked. For those who took longer time to cool, can start to take note.
Pic uploaded see my previous reply where the tell tail sign was the icing pipe in the bonet.

May be your aircon "Mode" is blowing the air to somewhere else? Blowing to legs , not to the body?
