no cold air from passenger side vent, hence happy hubby.

Poppa...you just made my day reading your post.....2014 'The year of living dangerously'.... all the best for 2015....cheers.

I use mine all the time, just control temperature with the heater knob on my Focus.

I have had the AC on in my 2003 BA for 6 years since
I bought the car. All good and still works nicely, original gas,
ice cold or warm to suit the season.

some people have said the BA is a better air con but if it keep s you cool and that is the important thing


Also I have become proactive in thing like motor cars because I am unable to do a lot of the mechanical work so what i look for is reducing break downs

And if running the air con all year keep my car out of a mechanics hands then i am happy

Thanks so much for your feed back
