air conditoning problem
 

okay so i have a little problem with my air conditioning. whenever outside gets hotter than 85 the ECON light goes on and my air conditioning does not work even if i turn it off it still blows the hot air did any of you had this problem? if you did please help me out because its 95 outside and i have to drive without air conditioning! Thanks !!!

What year is your car? Im sure it runs on 134a as my old 96 neon did. Try getting a recharge kit for it you might be out of refrigerant.

its 2000 1.8t quattro. see i did that like a month ago because it started not to blow that cold air. but now its just like in the morning when it was about 77-80 it worked perfectly fine and it blew really cold air. could it be just the electric system?

It could possibly be a bad A/C compressor clutch relay that is affected intermittently by heat.

ok so i found the problem. i put too much refrigerant and thats why it didnt work. thank for all advices!

Heh.. always tempting to push it 'just to the red' :)

Aha. Glad you fixed the problem, but noting that you have recently recharged the system would have been useful knowledge for us to try and help. ;)
