Why is my air conditioning not working in my VW Polo?
I first took the car to Halfords to be regassed, they said the compressor wasn’t working and I would need a new one.

Unfortunately the air conditioning still didn’t work so my garage fitted another compressor which again did not work.
What does it mean when your AC is running but not Cooling Your House?
If your thermostat switch is set to ON, that means the blower will run constantly—even when your system isn’t cooling your home, which will result in warm air blowing from your vents. How to fix it: Switch your thermostat to AUTO (see image below), so air only blows from your vents when the AC is cooling. 2. Your air filter isn’t dirty.
Why is the air in my car not cold?
Air blown across metal filled with cold freon causes the air to cool quickly. If your compressor isn’t working, the air won’t get cold. And your compressor might not be working because of low freon levels, an electrical problem, or an overheated engine. The condenser’s job is to turn the freon gases back into liquid.
How much does a compressor change cost on a VW Polo?
So a proper compressor change can be big money. Another Edit:- note, every competent refrigeration engineer will replace the drier every time that system has been opened up, not to do that will bring you problems later on, a drier, on these cars, probably costs £65+ and add to that time to remove the radiator etc to get access to the drier.
