Dear all. My aircon now sometimes when just switch on sometimes need me to drive for a minute to cool. But sometimes immediately cool. Sometimes when stop the car tapao also feels like no aircon only normal air. But sometimes stop then no problem. Anyone facing the same problem? I did not go to workshop as I think susah to detect. U know lah. Sick go see doctor then normal. Pls help to advice me. Thanks
 
check out the topic e60 aircon service in the e60 forum.

highly possible control valve in the compressor koyak. a common issue among e60.
 
I did face the problem in my e90, when I brought it to Naidu @ jln gasing, he rectified it & changed the compressor control valve,
that costs me rm700+ include workmanship & waiting time - 2 hrs.

he told me that its a common problem in e90 & e60.
 
ya lor....feakin expensive for a stoopid valve.
seems that the compressor on e60 n e90 does not use the clutch type which cycles the compressor engagement based on cabin temp but uses this "valve" to control the on/off cycle.must read up further on this......
 
Was searching this forum for similar problem as mine, but not found.

When I start the engine in the morning or when the engine is cold, with the air con turned on, there will be a growling sound (grrngg, grrngg, grrng) and the car will sway. The swaying must be due to resonance from the compressor+engine cos when I turn off the air con, the sound stops and the car does not sway.

What could be the problem?

Thanks.
