T5 Air con issues, anyone in the game?
Ive got a T5, the air con constantly turns on and off. It is not a gas issue and the compressor is running and up to pressure.
After a weekend of not driving it, it usually takes around 10 minutes for it to start operating.
Even when you start the car it is not working, you give it a rev and it starts operating. Even when coming to a stop and the revs drop, it stops
working..
Anyone work on these things?

The issue on mine was the gas sensor. A plastic sensor that checks the gas level and pressure. It was faulty and caused the aircon to randomly switch
off. Bend over a barrel to take the price. - $120 for a plastic plug and you have to regas the system.
