Nick the air-con does not have anything to do with the engine at all it is a seal system on its own and you will only loose your cooling on the heater system which could be a problem if its 70 or 80 degrees but i dont think so looking at the weather outside today 07my Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Baltic Blue,Privacy Glass,Ebony black leather,Land rover detachable towbar,S/S Side bars,Climair wind deflectors,Bramble Rash, |

then if your belt jumps off and becomes entangled with the other belts you could overheat and loose your power steering is your air con cold if not it could have leaked out as the gas also carries oil to lube the pump it could have gone dry? 07my Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Baltic Blue,Privacy Glass,Ebony black leather,Land rover detachable towbar,S/S Side bars,Climair wind deflectors,Bramble Rash, |

When you press the Econ button, the compressor is disengaged.

This sounds like a con, monitor it until its out of warranty, then come to us and we'll charge you for fixing it. or monitor it until its out of warranty, then come to us and we'll charge you for fixing it. but hopefully you wont want to pay to have it fixed and you'll be out of our hair and on your way. |

Economy = max 5% aircon duty cycle i.e. still active to dry the air but minimal impact upon mpg |

Sorry about this, but you are wrong. When you press ECON, the AC compressor is disabled 100%. (at least on all cars that I've owned) And FL2 is no exception. So, CG and Pinky are right. (The order is pure alphabetical, no offence... ) And to prove my words, here is what LR says, on page 12. https://www.freel2.com/gallery/albums/user...onents.pdf In fact there you'll find all the info needed about Climate Control System. |
