    guys,

    ride is Adventure SS '02. someone told me that i also need to open the aircon at the 2nd row when using the aircon even if there's no one at the back. para daw di masira yung aircon.

    how true?

    'Di ko alam yun ah. Totoo nga ba?

    I always leave the second row aircon turned off, kasi most of the time dalawa lang kami ni misis sa loob. Tsaka malakas na yung aircon sa harap, sayang lang yung lamig sa likod. Pag sobrang tagal naka-park yung sasakyan under the sun at gusto kong matanggal agad yung init, dun ko lang binubuksan, tapos patay ulit after 5 minutes.

    Di naman siguro. In the first place, bakit separate switches ginawa ng manufacturer instead of one? Probably, ang effect lang is the temp. inside, IMHO. Pag bukas ang dalawa, mapapalamig nya ng tama yung loob. Kung bukas lang yung sa harapan, baka di gaanong malamig kasi mas malaking area na ang palalamigin nya.

    no need to do that if 2 lng kayo, some do it if the car is parked under the sun at mainit msyado sa loob.

    jigs; tama yung nagsabi. napagusapan na namin ni lucktruck to dati. di ko lang makita yung previous post ko(maybe you can search it, ehehhehe). athough di ako Mech Enginneer, i almost deal with them all the time especially sa refrigeration. Me 98 adventure din ako dati. di ko rin open yung ac sa second row. until, sumakay sakin yung refrigeration consultant ng largest food & bev company dito sa SE asia. sabi nya di raw magandang din binubuksan ang blower ng isang a/c pag naka-on ito(i think nabasa ko rin ang isang post dito sa tsikot na toyota people now recomend this sa new innova). so that means dapat on din yung blower nya both sa front and kung mayroon rear. masama daw di nahahanginan(kahit mahina lang or 1 sa blower) ang isang coil pag may dumadaang refrigerant(freon). pati ang auto ac specialist namin tama raw yung consultant. added benefits are mabilis mukukuha ang desired temp and beneficial sa cooling coil. Imagine mo yung coil na almost freezing at walang hanging dumadaan. they also said na almost the same din ang working time ng compressor kung naka on or off ng likod ng a/c. kung me question ka pa PM me. add ko lang, nadiskubre nya lang to ng isuggest sa kanya ng refrigeration contractor nung nagloloko lagi yung vannete nya. tapos he review his ref subjects at sabi nga nya tama ah.

    bro tama c niwde11, same load din nmn kung nka open yung 2nd row blower mo. think 1 explaination ng mit air eh malakas kc ang load ng compressor ng adventure (design 2 handle 2 condenser) kung isa lng ang palagi gumagana malakas ang pressure ng na aabsorb ng 1st row condenser mo which may lead to leakage. example ko medyo malayo pero it make sense. my uncle owned a starex dual aircon din db... palgi lng nya ginagamit yung unahan after 6 months nabutas yung condenser nya and ang advice ng technician sa wheelers eh dpat nga buksan yung likod kht sa pinakamahinang blower.

    Same advice from my father-in-law who owns an L300 and who used to work with refrigirator repair. Mine 2nd row blower is always set to low even if I'm the only one in.

    An aircon mechanic told me to turn on the second row blower, ang explanation niya is the first and 2nd row blowers share the same compressor, ang advantage is if you turn on the 2nd row blowers, mas efficient ang cooling sa ride mo hence nakakapahinga ang compressor mo.
