    My Polo is Evil

    Hi All

    I know we all have troubles with the aircon in these things, have had mine repaired 3 times already but driving down the eastern yesterday pisssing down rain i hear this dreaded gas leak from beneath the passenger glovebox..

    Aircons bloody leaking again!

    Now i know they don't use toxic gasses in these things nowadays but that stuff seriously gives you head spins and a minor headache if you cant open the window straight away, its the last thing you want to happen on the freeway.. Cars trying to gas me lol

    learnt the hard way.. rain hail or shine, if you hear the thing leaking, just open the windows!

    BTW anyone know the solution to these dodgy aircons? Has been working fine for 5 months now until this.. maybe 4th time lucky?

    its not a good idea to be in the cabin if its filling up with R134a gas.... mine is leaking past the clutch pulley on the a/c compressor itself. $800+ is a bit dear atm..
