When turning the ac knob i feel like it doesnt catch on sometimes i have to go back to hot and spin it slowly to cold so i can switch over. For the first time yesturday i was on the highway stuck in traffic trying to put on the a/c and nothing was going on only hot air and as soon as it started moving the ac went on. Another thing i noticed is the when i turned the heat knob i feel like it turning on my gas pedal. Anyone know whats going on? Sorry if this has already been discussed but i did check first!!

Thanks guys

 

Now I see why evolved members get mad when pepl just post threads on stuff that's been covered.. The first time I had a problem on my RA I went to google searched 2004 lancer ralliart timing belt vibration and bam! First link evolutionm and everybody was great help.. Are you sure you searched or do you just want to be spoon feed information or just to lazy to read the threads.. There is revised gears for the box and sounds like your cable is bent I wouldn't turn it until you get the new gears and new cable cause your knob will break off... SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH last time I'll give you information

 

^well that may have been a bit harsh. sometimes specific problems may not always have been covered.

like he said it is possible that your cable may be bent. did you by chance check behind there and see if the gears or anything was broken back there?

sitting at idle with the a/c on blows somewhat hot air for me as well but when you move its cold. not sure but it may be the compressor clutch or something beginning to go out. i just left it as is since i hardly ever use a/c anyway. i like to roll my windows down to save gas

 

Your right I'm sorry but this is his second thread on stuff that's been covered

 

Trust me man i spent all my time reading threw pages and pages of everything i can get educated on searching for every problem and especially reading all the threads here before posting but im not experienced enough yet still kinda of a newbie in the mechanics area but in the process of learning.

 

And again I'm sorry.. Try using google search I think it's better than the search engine on here

 

i turned it so hard it cracked off, now i use needle nose's to turn it haa

 

Nice RA!. Yeah im not sure whats going on with mine dont really know anything about a/c's but whatever as long as i can get it to go on and off im happy

 

yeah i have mine turned all the way to max ac haha.

 

that's a myth....mythbusters tested that lmao

 

i drive in reverse all day to save gas

 

i waste gas, sometimes i boost hard in second gear just to get to the speed limit faster cause it feels good...

 

How far are you from montreal id love to get a ride in that beast of urs. Mabey get some work done on mine also

 

about 4.5 hours at 100km/h

what kind of work you need done? i hate interior work, but if you need to address your blend door gears we could pull your dash out one of these days, lol
