Air Con or not air con?

**Posted:** Mon May 30, 2005 6:15 pm

i bought my mazda about 2 months ago, and it's starting to puzzle me.
My car is a 1996 323f LXi 1.5, it has an a/c button that lights up when i press it, but doesn't really do anthing. i can't see a compressor for it under the bonnet, just wondering if anyone could tell me where to look?
Cheers.

Hi Ad,

Welcome to the club

Mazda put the buttons in all the 323f's but only a few of them have air con.

Im selling my air con unit in a few weeks/month to make way for a better engine in my car. Let me know if you are interested

Again welcome

Ben

so how much would a complete air con kit cost?

**Posted:** Tue May 31, 2005 11:47 am

Yes I presume it will fit the V6, its just finding the space to fit
it under the hood

I have no idea how much they are new? I could quite easily see
them costing £800 tho?

I think one from Mazda will be nearer £1500 if you can get hold of one, tho am sure an aftermarket kit could be got for less

The one reason the 323 was at the top of our (the wife and I) 5 door car search. It had air con

the wife doesn't do heat in the summer especially in cars and now she pregnant...... look out any one who cuts her up on the Kiddy ring road.
