Do all zs dervs come with air con?

As the title really just wondering and if they do i assume its all part of the rad like the 180 ones but with a intercooler added on.. that about right.
Im looking at doing something but thats about as much as im saying at the min lol

My ones got air con, but not as I know it.

Its all part of the o/e heater set up, if you want cold just put the dial on that and turn the blower on and push the a/c switch.

On other cars you can dial in the temp and the air con will keep it at temperature.

any chance I can ask for a pic of your rad and intercooler??
Sounds like there like the 180's but a bit shorter to accommodate the intercooler..

Hi Lawrence

Got this one, I'll take some of the rad and intercooler tomorrow.

Dont suppose this shows you much!!!

shows you an aircon pipe, thats normal aircon pete as most cars will have if im honest, the one where you just put the temprature in is climate control like on the mk2 180 and cetain plus models, as for rad intercooler setup id imagine its a sandwich setup, intercooler first, then the aircon condensor then the engine radiator, at least thats the setup on most cars!

peterzs · 30-01-11, 05:33 PM

Yep, thats what I ment Ritchy, couldnt think of Climate Control, thats what I think of when I talk about air con.

My one just works off the heater dial, hot, cold or in between.

Dont know if you still want a photo of the rads Lawrence, or has Ritchy answered your query??????????

take a picture anyway peter interested to see the setup, never payed attension to a diesel zs before in regards to setup at the front,
and climate control is just doing the same thing as your doing, its just adjusting the hot/cold/heater speeds itself as it see's the inside tempreture, the aircon side of things is essentially exactly the same still has the condensing radiator at the front, still has the evaporator in the dashboard and still has the aicon pump run off the engine

peterzs · 30-01-11, 06:13 PM

Will do Ritchy.

Bloody phone answered this earlier but it didn't post it... the pic would be great cheers pete and cheers for the info ritchy. Will post up what I'm up to once I have done more research

This is a DERV RAD as the engine looks at it.
The intercooler sits on the left, which will be the right as we look at it in the car.
