Inadequate function of the air conditioning system in the Peugeot 3008 (2018) - suspected defect in the refrigerant compressor

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my Peugeot 3008 from 2018 with a gasoline engine and still quite high mileage of 26182 KM. The air conditioning doesn't work properly - it cools and heats inadequately and blows warm air when it should be cooling. I think there may be a fault with the refrigerant compressor. Have any of you had similar problems and what are your experiences with the mechanic? Unfortunately, I was unlucky on my last visit. Looking forward to your advice and experiences.

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2015 Peugeot 308. My climate control unit, also known as the control unit, was defective. It showed similar symptoms to yours - wrong temperature, sometimes warm air when cooling and so on. Troubleshooting took a while, but in the end the mechanic pretty clearly identified the control unit as the source of the problem. It was definitely a more serious problem because the control unit controls the entire air conditioning system. In my case, the part had to be replaced, which is not exactly a small repair. But since the repair was done, my A/C has been working fine again. I hope this helps you a little. I would recommend that you take your car to a qualified mechanic and have the air conditioning control unit checked.

Hi, thanks for the valuable tip about the air conditioning control panel! Do you remember how much you paid for the repair? And have you experienced any other problems with the air conditioning or other parts of your Peugeot since the repair?

Hey, the repair to the air conditioning control unit was quite expensive and cost me 880 euros. But to be honest, after that everything ran like clockwork again and the previous problems with the refrigerant compressor were also history. Since the visit to the mechanic, my Peugeot has been back up to speed. No further problems with the air conditioning or anything else - everything is running great!

Hi, thanks, that's really helpful. Although 880 euros is a hefty sum, it sounds like it was worth it. I think I will definitely take my Peugeot to the mechanic and have the climate control panel checked. Hopefully that will be the case for me too. Thanks for your advice and your honest experiences.
