AirCon delete - any real benefit?

Post by **Pushki** » Mon Jul 02, 2012 2:27 pm

You'd be surprised how often I use mine.

I know we live in a cold climate, but on occasion it does get blistering hot, especially in a car that's been sitting in the sun all day with the windows up.

...plus, it's used to clear the windscreen when it's misted up on a cold morning.

I just whack the heat up to 32 and let it blast away on the screen for a few minutes..

I like aircon, but even when it was hot I still tended to roll the windows down

it started squealing so got junked for me

The point is that there really is no benefit to removing it unless you have a dedicated track car.
It will ultimately detract from the value/saleability of the car.

true dat,

I dont like having the aircon button there, when I dont really have it

I need to change it for something else, like oil slick, ejector seat or something

Agree on the button that's left - still deciding what to make mine - maybe my water injection cut-off???

Best thing about removing the aircon imo is that it massively declutters the engine bay - this is a good thing if you do your own maintenance
