    Terrano JDM. Nung unang kuha manginginig ka talaga sa lamig, pero ngayon hilaw ang lamig. Hindi pa pala nakakatikim ng cleaning ito for 7 years

    Malamig kung maganda panahon, pero pag tanghaling tapat or kahit hapon hindi malamig
    Hilaw pa rin ang lamig kahit at highway speeds pag mainit
    Hilaw din kahit buhusan mo ang condenser
    Drier(?) yung contraption na may glass may bubbles
    May nakabalandrang tube sa side ng air filter ko, so when I check it once in a while, pag ginalaw ko yun may sumisingaw (freon?), also may kakilala ako na sinabing hinawakan nya isa pang metal tube almost above the engine bay, dapat daw malamig yon. I see it dripping although at a very slow rate.
    Sa center console, yung left air duct parang hangin lang, while yung right malamig, plus parang may lumalabas na hangin from the footwell kahit hindi nakadepress yung switch para don.

    So rule out compressor? Possible dun sa tubings na i've mentioned? Possible din na sira na ang evaporator?
    Magkano kaya to have these tubings replaced, cleaning, at flushing ng system? Estimated cost ng evaporator?

    We can keep on guessing all week. But why not just have it checked over at an auto-aircon shop? It doesn't cost much for a check to be done and you'll know what is really the problem with your AC.

    Call this number 984-4881 and look for Anthony of CoolSpeck. At least you can have idea how much it will cost you.

    Sulit ka na diyan 7years, pa servisan mo na, kung butas ang evaporator around 4k yon mataas na yon, ang refrigerant 134a ngayon nasa 500/kilo nalang, ang mahal diyan yun talent fee ng gagawa...

    pa general service mo aircon system...
    -check for leaks sa system
    -check clutch fan mo kung ok pa( pinapalitan talaga iyan, it will cause high pressure sa system pag madulas na kaya mahina lamig.)
    -check the compressor itself ( ok pa ba yung pressure generated at both Low side and High side)
    -check the condenser ( baka madumi na puro insect at mga dahon dahon at iba pang dumi) less airflow kaya hihina exhange ng heat ng freon)
    -check if freon is at correct level( baka kulang lang, pag kulang meh leak yan)
    -check and clean you cooling coil ( baka madame na din dumi o alikabok, at meh mga flux residue sa fins kaya again less airflow)
    -check the drier/humidifier ( napapalitan din yan)
    -check expansion valve ( baka madumi na at barado ) be sure na orig na expansion valve lalagay

    madame shops gumagamit ng china na freon o kaya mga unknown brands.... mas ok if US brands dapat makita mo yung tank nila ng parang gasul na maliit... wag ka papayag pag freon eh galing sa isang canister that looks like refillable... baka peke yun..

    ~ 13 year old honda CRV 2.0 liter. exactly ganoon ang symptoms. It all happened one day when biglang walang lamig. busy ako so pina ayos ko sa relative ko na amatuer mechanic. pumunta sya sa local aircon repair shop owned by his friend. butas evaporator. new evaporator + freon + labor cost 6000. symptoms like the above happened after ma ayos.

    so since humina ang aircon after ma replace ang evaporator I assume na either maliit/low quality made in china ang evaporator or maybe somethings wrong with the freon. magkano kaya ayusin ito, using a good quality evaporator?

    it should have been a back job right? there could be a slow leak in your system, have it rechecked

    its been a couple of weeks. the quality of the cooling ahs not changed. doesnt that suggest that its not a leak? of course only checking the freon with a shop's meters and guages will show it for sure

    Nagpa cleaning ako kahapon, binalik sakin ng malamig (no. 1 na lang sa gabi kasi lumamig ng husto, dati no.2 pa) and medyo lumakas ang blower. Kaninang umaga, tinanggal ko yung resistor block(?) sa evaporator para macheck kung pinull down nga talaga nila (actually iniwan ko lang yung sasakyan, kasi may minor latero works pa), and malinis naman evaporator. Umalis ako ng mga 8am to MOA. Pagbalik ko ng mga 11am, may nakita na akong tubig dripping from the evap, i dismissed it as normal, pero yung lamig ng aircon humina ng husto, until halos mapuno na yung passenger floor mat. Pinacheck ko ulit sa kanila and barado daw yung drain, halos mapuno na yung evaporator, and nung nilinis yung drain hose eh sobrang lamig na tubig yung lumabas.

    May dapat pa bang ireplace dito? kasi nung umalis ako ng shop (after declogging the drain hose) eh hindi pa rin masyado malamig, or nagkataon lang na sobrang init kaninang tanghali? Tignan ko tomorrow morning if ganun pa rin yung lamig nya.

    Naginquire na ako sa eds and yung sa pao stree p.i. air conditioning. Malaki magpatong sa aircon parts.

    Mukhang magaling sila gumawa pero yung parts doon binawi yung patong.

    eds... reasonable naman price ng parts nila... and beside may warranty sila binibigay... As far as i know kahit surplus pa yan 6 months binibigay nila... wala kang babayaran...

    sir ask ko lang anong part yung mahal sakanila?

    Tama si sir glenn, kung down south ka lang may mahusay na gumawa ng aircon dito. Surplus lang na ac ng ek ang kinuha ko around 2008 for 4k petot plus cleaning na 1k perot, pero pinakita niya sa akin yung loob ng compressor at sariwang sariwa pa.

    Up to know linis linis lang (sa kanya din) okay pa naman.

    Last 2012, yung aircon humina na, kala ko palya na yung surplus na compressor , pinadiagnose ko ulit ang bumigay naman yung condenser fam, umiikot pa pero malamya na.

    Bili ulit ako surplus sa kanya 1500petot lang plus 500 petot full cleaning na din. yung mismong motor ng blower makinang pa - parang bago pa.

    Kung surplus na 4k na rin lang naman, onti na lang price difference ng brandnew Sanden SD5S11 Simgapore (507). Dumaan na rin kasi ako sa surplus na yan wala rin ako napala. Chambahan ika nga. Nag leak ng seals ng surplus ko so halos ganun din kinalabasan nung kumuha ako ng 508. Sureball ka pang tatagal and not expecting downtime anytime soon

    pero may possibility din ba na maaayos pa ng EDS yung aircon compressor ng tsikot ko which has a hissing sound when in idle (that leads to aircon not cooling in idle)? Mazda 323 yung tsikot ko.

    ^^^ dunno pero matanong ako sa mekaniko kaya nasusure ko na maayos surplus ko. So far so good.

    Depende talaga sa mekaniko yan, at normally madami naman mekaniko na may malasakit.
