Peugeot 306 DTurbo R-reg - Air Con

Post by Jim72 »

I have an R reg (1998) DTurbo and for about the last 10-12 months I have had a problem where the Air conditioning has stopped working which seems to have coincided with climate control not working as well. I am very reluctant to go to Peugeot due to the fact I know their quote would be extortionate. For now I am more interesting in finding out what the problem could be. I really don't know much about the inner workings of my car so if anyone could help with some advice it would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

if the aircon gas is too low the system shuts down to save the compressor so chances are it needs regassing.

Thanks for the reply.
One last thing....is it a specialised operation i.e. do I have to take it Peugeot or are there other places I can take it? Any suggestions if there are.
And if it is low on gas will that also have an impact on the climate control?

any refrigeration engineer can do it for a lot less than the dealer, it is a specialised job.
