Air Con
Hi, I have a 1993 TT Auto 2+2 thats been converted to manual. No problems there. What I have issue with is I've had the car for 12 years and to date never really bothered with needing the air con cooling function. Due to health reasons I now need it working. I've been told that the system needs parts replacing so that it can work with the latest stuff they use to regas them. Has anyone had experience of going through this process and knows what needs changing and some idea of the cost to get it done please? Many thanks, Rex

Failed MOT on Carbon Monoxide emissions
Hi guys, I was having this issue, getting my Z through the MOT emissions test. My son is a mechanic & MOT tester (recently qualified) and even he didn't know the path through the test for our cars. Mine is a 1993 import. Because its an import then they have no data to test it against. When the emissions test fail if they follow the instructions correctly they should then do a NON-CAT test which it passes easily. I know someone else with a 300 who has his own garage and he said exactly the same thing. You can see the charts that direct the MOT'er as oto how to test our cars on the VOSA site and that's what I showed my son. He spoke with a very experienced MOT'er and garage owner and he agreed with what I found on the VOSA site. If you cant find it and still having problems just let me know and I'll dig out the exact sheets/links for you. Also mine was running normal unleaded and low spec plugs so I've just found out and it still passed. Rex

Air con re-gas.
My son is a mechanic (Handy) and at his place they connect the regas machine to the car and it then does the whole job fully automatic. 1st it extracts all the old gas and oil, pressure tests the system and only if the pressure test is good will it then fill the system with gas. I had them regas my Mondeo. Shame they don't have the adaptors for doing my 300 as I need that doing too. I did go to a local place that did not have the machine that does it automatically so it may be worth asking what system the use. Rex
