There are very few things left on my Porsche C4 that need to be attended to. I have the drivers seatbelt to install. I need to look into the front hood latch (nothing big, just keeps sticking every once and a while). The cigarette lighter still doesn’t work (it charges things, just not the element, but that doesn’t really matter). And then there was the air control. I tried multiple control units and nothing fixed my problem. The heater was still not working, I was getting heat off the engine all the time, and AC was getting less and less cool. I jacked with the servos, I charged the AC, I attempted to change the control unit (2 times).. Nothing. She was not very fun to drive in the heat or cold.. If I was going to have a Porsche I could only drive in “perfect” weather I should have a Beck Spyder in my garage!

I took her down to Carriage & Motorworks on SW Traffic to have them give me an analysis (just around the corner from my work). They couldn’t work on her, so they sent me over to Aaron at BHR. So, here’s the breakdown:

1. When the AC was switched over originally, they installed it wrong and I was getting coolant leaks, bad pressure, and all around bad AC distribution.
2. The servo on the passengers side (one I missed) wasn’t allowing the air distribution to flow correctly, and was staying half open the entire time: reason for the heat off the engine all the time.
3. Blown fuse for the rear blower.

Aaron tells me I have strong AC (as strong as a conversion can get), good air flow/control and heat when I need it. Looking forward to driving her again in all weather conditions. I’ll report back when I actually get into her and drive her home in 100 degree heat.
