    A/C F430 ?

    Today, I had a nice trip (500km), but my A/C seems not working right.
    First it wasn't working, than suddenly it worked well, and at the trip back NO AIRCO !

    anybody had similar problems with the 430

    ..... I took some nice country roads at Spa Francorchamps

    beautiful car patriek, could maybe be the pipes freezing up?

    that's what my dealer told me some time ago, when I had the same problem, but than it was very hot, and he tought that I had put the airco to cold, but this time it was normal weather, and the airco didn't work at any tempature,
    Very strange, because I know it does work 'sometimes',
    When my dealer comes out of his vacation, I will let him look at it

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    these type of things shouldn't happen with a ferrari

    hope they sort it out quickly

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    Great picture! I have not any problems with the A/C. But of course, cars going to the US are of a better quality because they were built after Euro cars. Europeans cars were the first built and the guinea pigs.

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    A/C????!!! Following weather reports on TV I never thought you guys in Belgium will ever need an a/c. Not in cars anyway.

    Kidding aside, I had a similar problem in my E55 but I was not able to replicate it when the dealer inspected the a/c system! So the mystery goes unsolved.

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    Thats a great pic Patriek!

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    I experienced a similar problem at a 355, but I don't think these cars are comparable.
    At the 355 it was the sensor that was located inside the cabin (beneath the steering wheel), which got often obstructed by particles, hairs etc. so that the AC wouldn't start working (extremely annoying on hot days... ).

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    Man that's an awesome shot. Haven't seen one that has made the front lights look so damn aggressive.
    Sorry, I'm of no help w/ the AC question.

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    if there is too much freon gas in the system ,this is what happens . so let your dealer check gas quantity. i had the same problem in my previous modena ,and that was the reason

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    My car is in for repair,

    I'm curious what the defect is,
    they think the A/C needs to be filled
    This should not happen

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    I was just curious. How many miles have you put on your F430?

    1250

    Re: A/C F430 ?

    Patriek,
    So sorry to hear that you have had a few problems with such low mileage............I put in about 1550KM/968ML. Only problem I have at this point is that a rear combination lamp on the very left is starting to have a few small cracks, may be due to heat.

    You were right, it was too mutch gas.

    They talked about two modifications also, (already)

    1) replacing a fuse
    2) putting some extra handle or bar somewhere ..

    Tomorrow, I have it back, so I can tell more I think

    Hi Patriek, I would be very interested what they/you mean with extra handle and what's it all about with the fuse!

    Awaiting your further investigations!

    On a different subject: I am getting mine in a few weeks and my biggest concern is where do I put my golf clubs? In the Modena I had room behind the seats but I understand there is no more room? Is this true?

    There's as much room in the F430 as it is in the Modena? Why should it be different? It's basically the same car.

    If you order HiFi system, space behind the seats is limited by a central subwoofer.
