[exasperated]

Does anyone else have any problems with the air-conditioning in the XC 40?

If it’s hot outside (by hot I mean anything above 18°) and I turn the Aircon on, it takes at least 10 minutes of driving feel anything like cool, even on full fan, with auto turned off.

It was so bad the other week that I took it to the garage, and they agreed that it was bad and they found there was a hole in the condenser. Three weeks later I got my car back after they fixed it, but today I did a short drive in it of 10 minutes, and I got no cold air.

How quickly, esp on short journeys, do you all get freezing cold air blowing at you when on the lowest setting?

I’ve checked and it’s not on re-circulate and it’s not on the eco-setting. So user error is ruled out .

Tomorrow I’m going to go on a longer journey to see how quickly the cool air kicks in, if indeed it does. In the meantime as anybody else found that in this car the cool air takes a long time to get going?
