Vauxhall Adam's AC Trouble: Warm Air Mystery Needs Solving

Hey there! I have some experience with cars and had a similar issue with my 2017 Vauxhall Corsa last summer. The symptoms were pretty much identical, warm air when AC was on full blast. Took it to my regular workshop, and they found a faulty sensor cable connection that was preventing the AC system from working properly. The fix wasn't too complicated, they replaced the connection, and it cost me about 110 Euro. AC's been working perfectly since then. What's the mileage on your Adam? And have you noticed any other symptoms, like strange noises when the AC is running? This info would help me understand if you're dealing with the same issue I had.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Mine's at 124216 KM, and had its last service about 3 months ago. Haven't noticed any weird noises, just the warm air issue. Did your mechanic mention how long the repair took? I'm trying to figure out if I can get it done during my lunch break or if I need to take a day off.

Hey again! Good to hear back from you. Yeah, so with my Corsa, the actual repair was pretty quick, took about an hour and a half. The longest part was actually the diagnostic process where they had to check all the connections. But once they pinpointed the issue with that sensor cable, it was a straightforward fix. If your symptoms are similar to what I experienced (and it really sounds like they are), you should be able to get it sorted during an extended lunch break. Just make sure to call the workshop ahead and let them know about the specific issue, mention my case with the Corsa if you want, might help them zero in on the problem faster. One thing I forgot to mention earlier, after they fixed mine, they recommended getting the AC serviced annually to prevent similar issues. I've been doing that since, and haven't had any problems. Might be worth considering for your Adam too. Let me know how it goes when you get it checked out! Always curious to hear if others have the same experience I did with these Vauxhalls.

Thanks so much for all the detailed info! Really helpful to know it might be a quick fix. I'll definitely call the workshop tomorrow and see if they can squeeze me in during lunch. You're right about the annual AC service too, I've probably been a bit slack with that. I'll make sure to keep up with it once this is sorted. Will let you know how it goes, but feeling much more optimistic now that it might not be a major issue. Thanks again for sharing your experience, it's great to hear from someone who's dealt with something similar!
