Questions about i30 aircon

[Yagami85]

im driving a hyundai i30

recently i find out that when i park my car with aircon and engine on after about 15mins i feel that the temperature in my car become higher meaning getting hotter with the same degree set

and also my thermometer indicator (not sure what that is call) for the car went up higher too. but once i start to drive cold air start to blow out again and the thermometer went back to normal

cause last time i dont think got this issue at all cause i park my car and leave aircon and engine on the aircon still cold after 30 mins or more

please advise

sorry for the noob question

haha

Did you select air circulate in cabin or outside intake?

What could cause your aircon temp to go up is probably if you static idling and choose the outside intake where hot air from engine was being drawn in.

Means hot air coming in from the fresh air intake.

check your radiator water and fan if there are water or working..

Never mind.

Go petrol station.

Tell the pump attendant you want to top up radiator coolent.

They will top up for you. If you prefer, buy a bottle of distilled water n get the pump attendant to top up for you.

They know how to do it, don't worry, it's free labour.

if under warranty go back to KOMOCO to let them check and replace a new one. Do it fast in case the warranty expires. But KOMOCO will tell u its normal.

[Civicblade]

It is either your radiator fan is not working or that the thermostat controlling the on/off of the radiator fan isn't working.

 

Book an appointment with Komoco (or any other reputable workshop) and the fix should be straightforward.

The cooling coil is too near to the exhaust manifold, the fan is also not strong enough therefore it will turn warm slowly, my matrix is like that too.

Top up some refrigerant gas might help alittle.

Idle rpm too low?

Or aircon simply not powderful enough at low rpm?
