Trust a NSWelshman to change things last minute :P joking!!!

 

If it persists, you could consider a re-gas of your A/C and have the seals checked out.

 

Not sure Kall. That's up to him. I have to check and see if he's still coming.

If he is and does join in the KK, I'm tipping Meguiar's waterless car wash products will be high on the probability list.

 

What's last minute?! It's nearly a month away!!!

 

Thanks Labby but if it persists Mazda can figure it out. I'll see how it goes over the next few weeks.

 

If I had some i'd be happy to give them back

Should be done and dusted by now

 

ah! i ALWAYS wondered what that abs test was... i thought something was wrong with my car... the dealer should have told me about it

 

warm day today here. as a test I turned on the car, waited a minute then turned on the AC.

Outside temp was 27c degrees and the climate control was set to 24c. There was an audible clunk as the aircon compressor fired up. Funny how I was used to hearing it and thinking nothing of it. Just tuned it out so to speak because I expect the AC to do it.

 

Really? I thought it worked pretty well. Not saying I'd like to use it all the time but as a quick spruce up it did the job for me.

 

In Sydney we're usually still begging people to come at this stage.

 

Yep, I'm starting to think that's all it is too.

When I started the car up yesterday I still had the A/C on and it made the same kind of noise. I'm going to try again on Wednesday with it off and see what happens.

It may be that the more extreme heat caused by leaving it in the sun all day causes the compressor to be activated with greater force, thus making a more audible 'clunk' (good word - that's what it sounds like). Still, I've parked the car in the sun previously and not noticed it as much .
