2006 Winny 40KD Vectra Comments Needed
Interested in this unit. Is this a side radiator? Can you give me any comments about this unit? Anything to look out for? Basement ac no go? Thanks.

The cost of servicing or replacing a basement A/C is very high compared to just yanking out a roof unit and plopping in a new one. It makes sense in a bus where you have a dedicated repair staff.
The side radiator sidesteps an issue with rear rads (plugging with road dirt) but adds some complexity in the driving of the fan (hydraulic or shafted). I see the side rad as a marketing bullet for the brochure. It takes 1/2 hour twice a year to clean the rear rad and charge air cooler. You can use Simple Green Extreme or air conditioner fin foam.
