Possible S40 Problem? S40-V40 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Joe on  Sun May 6 14:56 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hello everyone,

Ive had my S40 for a month now and I want to see if anyone else has had this problem.

The problem that I am having is with the AC. Ive noticed that when I drive, air comes out of the vents with the AC off (set to 0) and when I open the front windows the amount of air coming out of the vents increases. I can make it blow hot air when I turn the temperature dial to the red and cold air when I turn it to the blue. To me it seems like the AC fan is not shutting off. I also noticed that when I set the Fan speed on Auto, the flow direction to Auto, turn on the AC compressor on, and set the temperature all the way to the blue the amount of "coldness" is less then that when I set the fan speed to 5 and the flow direction to blow from the top vents.

When I went to pick up my plates I told the sales person the problem and he said it was normal. For some reason this doesnt seam normal to mean. No other car I have driven has done this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
