Has any one ever tried improving the air con. I can not believe that it should be this poor. The compressor is cycling which would indicate that the system believes the core is getting to the correct temperature, but from my temperature readings it is not getting cold enough. A new sensor has made no difference, so before I go the route of trying different temperatures to cycle the system I thought I would see if anyone has managed to get the system working properly?
I fitted a valve to shut off the hot water to the heater box and that made a big difference.Unfortunately I,ve just had to replace my condensor because the cheap way the fans are fitted to the condensor has corroded it but hey-ho its a LOTUS and I luv it.
I would upgrade it by removing it and installing it in a box in your garage or sticking it on EBay …
Had ac in my Noble and always left it switched off. Have never had it in my Exige and have never missed it …
Ducatiman…
did you post details of your aircon mod?
also - when you replaced the condenser did you have to remove the front clam?
cheers
The exige with Air con already has a heater shut of valve. This is at the drivers side sill. Did you add an extra valve or replace this existing valve?
