I did a search, & got some info, but I've just about had it with this car. I'm trying to fix it & relieve myself of a headache.
Issue:
Car runs fine, but when I turn the a/c on the temp gauge begins to climb. Also, colder air comes out the vents when I actually starting moving. I'll have to shut it off obviously to let it cool down.
The thermostat was replaced by the previous owner (but didn't check if it's the right one), I've replaced the degas bottle, & tried bleeding the system countless times. The only time I get fluid to come out the hose is after the fact that it overheats. But when it's cold & I let it sit for probably half hour, nothing comes out.
Heat works fine, a/c was working fine till it started to overheat pretty bad. It has an electric fan...& this issue just started within the last few weeks. My wife just started to use the a/c, & it's only happened a few times.
I'm thinking DCCV, but could it also be anything else?
