Did you check the fan was running OK? You should make sure it is, so you don't have an overheat when sat still or damage the A/C system due to overpressure.

Matt,

Just to avoid any misunderstandings, the air conditioning trinary switch will disable the compressor if refrigerant pressure rises too high, so the system will stop operating and no damage will result.

Don't add cheap sealing muck to your engine please, it is a bad idea OK.. :}

The cooling system in your car is mainly water, and water boils at 212f 100c I think. But if you pressurise the system then it doesn't boil untill about 220f ish.. And cars cooling systems are under pressure once the engine gets hot...

So.. If you get a leak in a pressurised system running above 212f, as you did, then the pressure drops and it will start to boil, which yours did. All that is a pain, but perfectly understandable-normal.. :}

So you just need to fix the leak, and replace any lost coolant fluid.

When you select "demist" on your dash, this causes the internal heating fan to run to clear the mist, and the engine fan to run to keep the air con condenser cool. Both fans should run... OK. :}
