ahearder Posted February 4, 2014 Report Posted February 4, 2014 Hi does anyone know if it would be possible to pull the air con parts from 1.9 tdi 1997 galaxy at a scrap yard and fit them into a galaxy that doesn't have air con? Quote
insanitybeard Posted February 4, 2014 Report Posted February 4, 2014 (edited) The amount of work required to do it is likely to be prohibitive- not only do you need to install the compressor, condenser and all associated pipework and wiring in the engine bay (possibly with different drive belts and pulleys to drive the compressor, different brackets, mountings, radiator fan etc), the heater box will also be different as the air con version will have an evaporator in it, the body/ engine bay wiring looms are also likely to be different, the switchgear needs to be installed on the dash..... You'd have to dismantle a lot of the vehicle to do it, it isn't worth it in my opinion! Edited February 4, 2014 by insanitybeard Quote
BrianH Posted February 4, 2014 Report Posted February 4, 2014 Are you sure yours doesn't have aircon already? My base model Aspen 2.0 does, so would have thought they all would. In common with most it doesn't work though.......... Quote
