Apparently he filled a carrier bag full of rotting leaves/fag ends which were trapped in and around them and I thought I was quite thorough cleaning that area out.

Strangely enough I seem to recall Martin (diesel130) getting them replaced under warranty.

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

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Spooky. Mine just developed same fault within last week or so. Sounded horribly like a whining g'box till i turned the climate control off. Doesnt sound like its coming from the engine bay. Regards Neil

POST 2Original post

My aircon as just developed a strange noise. I can only describe it as a low whining, it increases in tone as you excelerate! Anyone got any idea. I'm covered under extended warranty so should be ok if i have a problem! Should you always keep the aircon turned on? Cheers Chris

POST 3Original post

It's a lack of oil in the system, usually due to a leak. Eventually all the gas will leak out too & you'll have no aircon. If it's a leak due to the front aircon rads then you won't be covered under warranty [ ] Good idea to leave the system on all the time AFAIK.

POST 4Original post

Nick any idea of size of job to fix/cost if it's not covered under warranty[ ] would you take it to a good indi? Cheers Chris.

POST 5Original post

Strangely enough I seem to recall Martin (diesel130) getting them replaced under warranty. Otherwise, definitely go to an indy. Aftermarket Eis rads are just over £100 each, plus a couple of hours for fitting and a re-gas. £400-ish all-in for both sides I would guess.

POST 6Original post

That's about what I paid for mine last month from a local radiator/aircon specialist I'm friendly with (but not friendly enough to get a big discount!). Apparently he filled a carrier bag full of rotting leaves/fag ends which were trapped in and around them and I thought I was quite thorough cleaning that area out.

POST 7Original post

My bad - Richard is correct and the warranty does cover the aircon rads.
