Anyone got a Kia Sedona - Heating / Air Con question

meana

Hi all,

anyone got a Kia Sedona not the newest model.??

Is your airconditioning about as good as being blown on by an asthmatic hamster.?? even on full whack.?

i may have too high standards having got rid of my Passat which had very good air con...but even so, with the hot last few days it's been well tested and i'm lucky if i can feel any cooler air ruffling my hair.

Could be low on gas/refrigerant.

I don't normally recommend Kwik Fit but they do a re-gas for £25, or no charge if they can't improve it.

Kwik fit charge £45 around here! :eek:

The 10% improvement they say they'll produce else you don't pay is easy to achieve by not allowing sufficient time initally for the air con to reach max cooling capability.

thanks...it would be probably be worth it either way...it's absolutely useless !

Isn't that the car Top Gear constantly took the pi$$ out of?

probably...since it's an ugly cheap plastic fantastic lunk of Korean metal.
it's fairly dull, not that quiet and drives like a van.
but it comfortably fits 4 adults and 2 kids and lots of luggage space..so it does the job for me..
