Hi there.
Has anyone had rear air conditioning reto-fitted by VW or aftermarket.
I need to know if a bigger compressor is required to handle to the extra load with from the factory or when retro-fitted.
My 16,000 km van's compressor has packed it in and I would like to retrofit a larger compressor now if a larger one is need for my future rear air conditioner.
Thanks

On my 2005 2.5 TDI is the factory rear air cond. The compressor is the same as without rear air cond, I checked when I had a/c trouble one time. But the rear air -I think- comes with the "towing pack" with larger condenser, twin a/c condenser fans, etc.
