[QUOTE="chinstephen, post: 618215, member: 24384"] Hi, can I have the contact number for Naidu. My problem might be the same as the rest of you. It takes a few minutes to get cool air and when the compressor kicks in the noise is rough for a couple of minutes and after that its fine. My main problem is whenever I cover a distance of 100K's at 180-210Km/hr, stop the car for 30minutes and after that its hard to get the aircond cooling. I have to speed up to high speed again to get it running again. I'll be sweating if experience in heavy traffic. Drive for about 20 minutes at high speed and overheat warning sign comes on, go down to 65Km/h then red sign comes on. Stop the engine for 5minutes and restart again and drive all the way for another 40minutes without the aircond with no warning sign. Managed to get it diagnosed and found out coolant water pump problem. Got it replace today together with a new radiator and air cond problem still there. Might have to try with a new air cond switch as recommended but are there any possibility of insufficient compressor oil or magnetic clutch causing the problem. Hope the sifu's here can shine a light on this for me. [/QUOTE]
