Ok ive searched here and there over the past few months, havnt found a solution and need help if there is any.

Its been about 2 or 3 months now my air con stopped working (randomly worked twice for a few minutes in the past 2 months when i put it on). Not only that but when i put my "reds" on a clicking noise sounds from behind the climate control unit under the dash which clicks around 12 times.

Fed up on friday arvo, i pulled out the climate control thinking it was making the noise and responsible for the lack of "cold air". It wasnt the unit. So i pulled out the glove box and the noise came from behind where the climate control unit sits. I thought "fark pulling out the dash" and didnt.

I took out the air con fuse from the engine bay and the noise is still there, the fuse is also fine. I disconnected the climate control and the noise was gone... WTF!!! Just to clarify the heater and normal air (18) work fine its the air con im talking about.

Other problem is my hand brake light stays on in the mornings when its cold but in the after noon im pretty sure it never stays on...

Other problem is when you press that buttom that makes the side mirrors retract in the left side works fine but the drivers side mirror doesnt retract. If i physically retract it myself, it will go "out" to normal position when i press the button.

Thanks in advanced i hope these problems have unfortunately been experienced by someone else.

Air con clicking is a small plastic cog/s that are stripped and slipping. Do a search and there are even pics, but pulling the dash to bits is something I put in the 'fark that' basket for now as my compressor has shat itself anyway. Good luck with that

handbrake light is the brake fluid is low, cold in the morning means fluid shrinks compared to afternoon it expands ect ect, i had the same thing with my hi-cas light

Could also be the switch at under the lever. They are a real cheap shitty item and mine used to stick until I sorted it out.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
