cheese Member 51 Member For: 21y 10m 22d Posted 22/02/04 01:09 AM Share Posted 22/02/04 01:09 AM My air conditioning doesn't work as well as in my 1994 ED.Does anybody have similar experience to me?I have to leave the control on MAX all the time, to get some relief from the Sydney heat. I run the system in recirculated air mode and the fan on past half way.With the control off MAX there is nearly nil cooling.My old car used to cool the car quickly but in the new XR6 I'm sweating.Is there any way that I can get some better relief? Could the controls need attention or thermostat altered. I wouldn't want to be driving in the outback. I intend to go to the dealer but if I could get some feedback first it would be appreciated.

Use Max for about 10 mins then fresh at 50 % works great Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/9299-air-conditioning/#findComment-95310 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Mrs Z' and my car have the BEST performing a/c I have ever come across, bar none. You should be able to make your passengers shiver when it's 40 outside!Cheerszeke Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/9299-air-conditioning/#findComment-95340 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they both said.Only issue I do have is that turning it off for a while then turning it on gives out a bit of a smell - as though the gremlins inside the vents are letting rip..
