JMotor Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I now have working air con in the Daewoo. After just a recharge. I have actual A/C that fucking works... In the most shonky looking car I have ever owned too. But I don't care. Because it works! Near effin delirious with joy.

wuvvum Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I've found Korean cars in general to have pretty robust A/C systems. Same with Japanese cars to be fair - about 10 years ago I had a G reg Accord which still had ice cold aircon. (It also had cruise control, electric windows all round, a sunroof and a 150bhp 2-litre 16v engine, and went like f**k. I should have kept that car, but my inability to find a replacement for the dodgy ABS pump meant I couldn't get it through a test.)

High Jetter Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 A/c in Mrs J's 09 Auris had <10% of refrigerant left, hence ineffective. £60 regas sorted it. JMotor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard_FM Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 My 51 reg Toyota Yaris still had AC that worked fine when I traded it in, even when I forgot to run it in the winter to keep the seals lubricated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somewhatfoolish Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 That probably needs an asterisk/pixelation? Swearing is one thing, meat and two veg quite another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffgeezer Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I have kept nagging at B & SIL to get their cambelt changed, managed to get them to have one done on their cashcow earlier in the year.

eddyramrod Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I couldn't understand why I still have £55+ in my PayPal account, despite sending most of that to three Shiters for diecasts and Roffle tickets. I have now figured it out. I didn't have the payment option set to "use PayPal balance." This means they are going to appear on my credit card bill instead.

Justin Case Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Just for a laugh I checked the price of our house using the Zoopla website. I was delighted that our house is worth £80k more than next door's, especially as his has a large extension and the garden is about three times the size of ours ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
