Aircon

[Bekker]

The aircon on my E36, 328i is blowing cold but on full speed i can hardly feel the air.
please help

Is the fan running at full speed , i.e. can you hear it ?
You have a cabin filter that may need replacing .
Google this , its a schlep to replace due to you having to work carefully as its under the dash .

yep I think start with the filter...bit of a pain as u havta take the cover under the drivers side dash off..if it's blocked or dirty could be why..otherwise..cld be blower or somtin else. GL

Why the fuck did the decide to put it there? So much simpler on the newer cars.

Without a doubt, the cabin filter is blocked.

thanks guys, i spoke to a buddy last night also and he said it might be the relay switch,, but where do i get the relay switch in the car

If the air blows normally on lower speeds but not on full speed, the final stage unit is blown. Google for FSU replacement on an E36 board.
