    I have my car's A/C on year round in Newcastle area. Only time I turn it off is when the outside air gets below 17deg as the A/C then starts blowing hot air and I can't stand hot air blowing on me!

    I use my air con all year as well, it's the best for keeping the window's de misted as well.

    Another A/C all year round here too....

    Not only is it best for demisting, and keeping your cool, it's also the best thing you can do for the system - running it keeps the seals lubricated, and reduces the chance of a leak developing.

    I've had 2x VS commodores go more than 10 years without needing any A/C work. One got a minor top-up when it was 11, and that's it - still running perfect. Yet the neighbour's one failed after just 2 years, and they are constantly getting it regassed every summer. The difference? They don't run theirs unless it's a stinking hot day.

    air con

    Hey Byron I have a complete air con unit i have been putting aside for a while to go into the sandman, as it has half of one of those crappy after market under dash 'cut off half yr glove box compartment' units.... I noticed that you recommend using a HZ unit for a HZ etc...

    Thought I might try get it in soon so maybe might have it done by summer.....

    Thing is I got this unit ages ago and I cant remember what its from. Just wondering if theres a way i can tell what model's air con I have? I can post pics if that helps... Cheers.
