If I turn off the aircon so that when I start up, its on the min setting with the compressor running its whisper quiet.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I think BF is Space Grey. ([link=http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=230691]http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/tm.asp?m=230691[/link]) There isn't anything that you can do yourself to check the aircon. Being a new engine (assuming it was a Porsche exchange) it will have a new compressor, so I doubt that's at fault. The systems get noisy when the gas is low, so although you have had it re-gassed, I would get it checked again. Also, make sure they know the correct weight of refrigerant and oil to use.
Yeah - I thought so based on your colour codes... Actually, worth noting that on an exchange engine, Porsche do not provide a new compressor. The old one is taken off the existing engine. Everything else is provided - just not the compressor ! I suspect it is low gas - but I think I must have a leak somewhere as it shouldnt have gone down that quickly.... the OPC regassed it FOC for me - so I would hope they know what they are doing
Thanks Alan
Hi,
I'm having a problem with my AirCon.
I had it regassed recently, and failry shortly after, it started to get quite noisy. Not mad noisy, but louder than I would like.
Its still blowing hot/cold air as requested but its just noisy... Its not always that way - some days its fine.. I guess its down to how hard it has to work.
If I turn off the aircon so that when I start up, its on the min setting with the compressor running its whisper quiet.
It was making noise in fairness before I regassed it - but having had a few minor alterations done (like a new engine) it didnt work at all afterwards. Since been rectified, but now the noise is back again.
Do they need to be bled - or is there anyway I can check if its a pressure problem? I had a bit of a look at the rads from the intakes and they look ok to me.
Thanks
Alan
p.s. - does anyone know what the interior colour BF is ????
The other place they leak is the lines -- the thick black metal ones -- that run down the right hand underside of the car, especially near the plastic brackets. Run a cloth along them and see if you get any greasy green fluid.
On my Carrera I had noisy aircon, (a gurgling noise that sounded like dodgy plumbing) that took ages to diagnose. After 3 visits it turned out it was a faulty solenoid on the compressor. Once changed it was quiet as a mouse and very cold
OK.. thats a few things to chase up.. Thanks for all that feedback. It is blowing cold air perfectly fine, but the gurgling noise does sound right.... I'll put it on my list of things to do
Thanks Alan
