S4 Temp reading with A/C?
hey guys, i just installed A/C in my S4. When i have a/c off it gets to its usual temp reading (about a quarter of the temp gauge), when i use the a/c it gets to about half of it (about 55%). i want to know if this is normal or if the a/c is causing it to overheat.

south tx, why?
|
every thing is stock for cooling, i mean it had factory a/c, i installed factory parts i would expect it to work fine?
|
The thing is, that the condensor is pretty much like a radiator... so its sitting infront of the rad. Thats why I wanted to know what mods if any you have done to your car.. Do you have a front mount, are you using the stock fan? Do you have the aux fan ? do the temps change from day-night ?
|
mine is an n/a, stock fan and i dont know if it has the aux fan, and temps are just about the same at night.

eh, ill see about aux fan but i dont plan on having funds for it anymore, it was$500+ for the brand new Mazda compressor:(, ill take a pic tommorow. thanks.

WTF you bought a NEW mazda compressor!
Dude, that one part is like 1/4 the value of your car! |
That's about right. Mine does the same thing, S4 NA, no aux fan, just the shaft driven fan.
I don't worry until around 2/3rds up the gauge. Halfway with the A/C on is just fine. -=Russ=- |
