    Hi

    When I switch on the climate control on my 1.8T, when the engine is cold, I get a noise that sounds like a loose fan belt. (If I don't switch on the CC - no noise - wait a while then switch it on the noise will then occur). Would anyone have an idea as to the cause / remedy? .....and er...likely cost to fix it !!

    Thanks

    Andy

    I could be wrong but it sounds like your auxilary belt needs adjusting. When you switch the Climate on it puts extra load on the belt and it slips.. Should be a quick fix to adjust. Slightly longer if you have to replace the belt.

    Thanks for the replies gents.

    I'll check the Haynes manual to see if I might check this myself otherwise it's useful knowledge if I have to go back to a dealer.

    Cheers
