Ventilation and air conditioning problems in a 2016 Opel Ampera: experience and advice wanted

Blower does not work properly

|

Insufficient Cooling/Heating

Hey guys, I'm a bit worried about my Opel Ampera from 2016 with a gasoline engine and 175525 km run. The ventilation is spinning and I can't really count on the heating/air conditioning either. Last time at the mechanic it was a nightmare. Now I think the AUC sensor may have a signal fault. Have any of you had similar problems and can share your experience with your garage? Thanks in advance!

Hello, I understand your concern. I had the same trouble last year with my Opel Astra 2013. Air conditioning/ventilation was acting crazy, then we also blamed the fault on the AUC sensor. It was a huge hassle and quite a nightmare to solve. The sensor itself was actually faulty. I had it repaired in my garage, the guys there did a good job with the replacement. It was definitely serious, because without a properly functioning AUC sensor it's really not pleasant. Hope this helps you!

Hey, thanks for your reply! Your experience sounds pretty similar to my situation. Can you remember how much you spent on the repair? And have there been any other problems with your car since then, maybe even related to the AUC sensor? Appreciate any advice!

Hey, no problem, always happy to help! So, I paid €90 for the repair of the AUC sensor. Fortunately, the issue has been resolved since then, the sensor is working perfectly and my car feels good again. So don't worry, a good mechanic can fix it. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it goes just as smoothly for you!

Cool, thank you! Your information really reassures me a little. I'll probably contact my mechanic and hope it doesn't cost more than 90€. I wish you no further troubles with your car! Thanks again for the help and sharing your experience. Stay healthy, buddy!
