A/C Problems!

[ludur666]

Hi, I just bought a 2001 X5, 4.4i, and I am having problems with my A/C system. It works perfectly for about 2 minutes and then, suddenly, it wont blow air through the vents, and you can still hear that the system is still working, then almost two to five mins after, it blows air again, and this thing goes on and on again.
Does anyone knows what it is???
Thanx!!

Do a search on final stage resistor, which is a common failure point for X5's. That may be your problem. It is not expensive to replace this part and is an easy DIY. Hope that it is the FSR and not the blower motor, etc.

Sorry for being a newbie, but I can do this search on my own, or I need assistance?
Thank you!
