As for the AC- does it still work- does it still produce cold air? We need more information to help here.
Hi there.

Thanks glad to be here just wish it wasnt under such frustrating circumstances.

I thonk the service indicator may be down to the display I have some pixelation elsewhere. It seems to go back to proper reading quite quickly just occasionally displays one bar not 4.

The air con seems to still work certianly cold air comming out and its hot out there so dont think it can just be fan. Will take for a drive now to try for a prelonged period.

So here are some more detials.

GOt in the car air con was on max, drove for 1 min and then there was a loud bang, loud enough to make me jump and suddenly a loud wurring noise. Took me 10 secs or so to realise it was the aircon. The niose is louder the more powerfull you have the air con on. and is there all the way down untill you turn it off completly. Figure it is the fan? as the noise is quiter the lower the air con is on.

also when you turn it of completly there is a mili second or so that the noise is still there and the niose slows down if that makes sense and then stops.

Anything else that would help you help me?
