Most Common Car AC Problems:
Good climate control is essential for your vehicle if you want to enjoy a comfortable ride. The element responsible for ventilation and cooling is the auto air conditioning unit. With proper maintenance, the AC should provide long-term service. Here are some common auto AC problems and components to replace for better performance.
One of the most essential aspects of your vehicle is the climate control, responsible by your car’s air conditioning system, if you want to enjoy the comfort of your car. The air conditioning system includes the ventilation and cooling unit of your car. A well maintained and well serviced AC should function well for a long term period. However, there are some AC problems that are quite frequent and you should be aware of how to tackle or replace for better performance:
Contamination
Before you opt for an AC service, you might want to flush your AC system to clear it of dirt and debris. Contamination could very well be the sole culprit of a vehicle’s AC problems. Even if it's not, putting a new part in a clogged system will prevent the new part from functioning well either.
Leakage
The auto Air conditioning system cools the vehicle by using a refrigerant, or Freon, to get rid of the heat. The Freon circulates through the Air conditioning system and is not supposed to run out. However, it might leak out. Leaks occur due to wear and tear of the rubber seals, grommets and O-rings in the system. If you want to restore the performance of the AC unit, consider replacing these worn out components with new and possibly better ones.
Failure of the Evaporator
The evaporator is responsible for absorbing the heat produced in the vehicle during cooling. If the evaporator coils are damaged, the best option is to replace them. Repair and reconditioning will normally be more expensive than new evaporator coils. In addition, replacement yields reliable and longer functionality.
Compressor Issues
The compressor is designed to pump the refrigerant (Freon) around the Air Conditioning system. Hence if the compressor fails, your entire system will most likely stop working. In certain cases, you might be able to repair the compressor if the problem is small like a broken service clutch. More often than not however, replacing the compressor in its entirety is the best solution.
Worn Belts
There are belts and pulleys in the AC set-up, and they are connected to the engine. The belts can wear out over time, so you should check their condition regularly and replace as and when necessary.

Do It Yourself
A big part of car wash and cleaning is the cleanliness of the Air Conditioning system. If you notice a foul smell coming out of the vents in your car, your best bet is to make use of an MFCS car ac service near you.
However, if you are in another country, or stuck somewhere far away from any one our 315+ MFCS service shops, you can take the following 3 steps to clean your AC yourself:
Take it Apart:
Dismantle your air conditioner to get greater access to the vehicle’s inner workings. This will allow you to get rid of whatever dirt or debris that have accumulated inside your car’s air conditioning system.
However, it isn’t easy for a lay person to remove and handle a car’s hoses, evaporators and condensers. Thus, it is recommended you bring in your car to the nearest MFCS workshop for a car AC service.
Search the ducts:
Search for leaks in the tubes of your evaporated. If you find any, fix them or replace them.
Don’t wait any longer if your car AC hasn’t been working optimally, or if you haven’t had your car ac serviced for a while. Book your car AC service at the MFCS car AC Service nearest to you.
