Hi there - not too sure where to post this - please move this if it's in the wrong place!
My A2 is nearly 7 years old. no problems with the climate control until just a few months ago. I had hot air but no cold air but as it was winter - didn't matter too much (although I wasn't happy when the windows kept misting......). I have the climate control running always. Anyway - had the system re-gassed but that didn't solve the problem. So last week - an air-con specialist (it's all he does!) emptied the gas, refilled it, had a think and then said it was the compressor. So a new one from Audi was ordered and fitted. However - this has not solved the problem 'cos the climate control is still not working. The chap mentioned that the new compressors from Audi are now fitted with microchips and possibly my car cannot read this (newer) chip hence the problem. He is saying that he will now connect back my old compressor and I should go to Audi themselves to get the problem sorted. Please can anybody shed here shed some light on this?
I am in Liverpool, if that's any help and my A2 is 1.4SE petrol
