Aircon Losing Cold Air

[yapoy86]

basta may leak yan.. either butas evaporator or may leak sa fittings... kung hindi nag engage yung compressor mo wala ka lamig na mararamdaman dyan kahit katiting.... yan yung tinatawag nila na "hilaw" ang lamig...

or pwede din na stuck open yung hot zone flap ng aircon mo kaya naka direct yung hangin dun sa hot zone

[brainmafia_310]

try this,

double check the air circulation method, try opening and closing it for 3 to 5 times with an interval of 1 minute each while your ac fan (NOTE: FAN ONLY) switch is on manual lowest setting.

after closing the air circulation proceed to next step:

try switching your air direction button/knob to different locations (vent, leg, windshield etc and etc) eto yung pwede mong iset yung air flow ng aircon mo.

after going back to the original setting which most likely is nasa front ventilation lang proceed to next step.

set the air blower to maximum (from minimum kanina), set the temperature to maximum, rev up the engine up to around 1.8k to 2k rpm then observe for at least 2 to 3 minutes. after that let the ac go back to its automatic setting

by the way do this before you go to work para after the routine macheck mo kung effective i hope sana effective.

Kasi, IMHO kung may problema AC system mo, nakargahan na yan ng tamang freon level or na check na agad ng CASA kung may leak so since coldness ang problem mo and ang main medium is the air, baka may konti or short circuiting ng aircon system mo.

Hope this helps.

Yeah nage engage yung compressor pero I was about to say nga na parang "hilaw" yung lamig na lumalabas sa aircon. Parang manipis na ewan, hindi solid yung lamig hehhe.

Mahal ba sa casa kung dun ko ipapagawa?

C4U.. walang mawawala kung papatingin mo yan sa reputable AC repair shop

free checkup naman.. pag di ka satisfied sa sinabi ng mekaniko look for 2nd opinion.. 3rd.. and so on

best bet..palagay ka lang ng freon

Yeah I think freon talaga kasi kulang sa lamig. Ang problema ko if I will have it repaired there or casa. May lamig pa naman but hilaw nga. I don't know how long that will last

Yeah but I want to find out why the freon leaked I will try to claim warranty muna sa casa since due na ko for change oil, Kaya lang baka biglang galawin ng casa magulat naman ako sa presyo, Gusto ko estimate lang muna.

[_Cathy_]

I am also 90% na freon. Pero ang problem saan nanggaling ang leak at kung saan ko ipapagawa. Geez! Talagang every single Saturday ko nasa pagawaan na ko ng kotse

[uls]

normal lang yan

car owner ka

you've been using that car everyday for 3 yrs

something's gotta give

[_Cathy_]

I will bring it to the casa muna and try to claim warranty

[K.I.L.L.]

A reputable air conditioning shop can put freon and UV liquid like Spectroline. This is a dye that will appear where the leaks are making the task of finding the leak simpler and efficient. Determine where the leak is, seal it, charge up on freon and you'll have a cool car again.

Good luck!

For sure freon leak nga lang yan, i'd say wag na sa casa i doubt if they will entertain your warranty claim

Marami naman nag suggest dito sa board ng reputable ac shops.

Better have a comprehensive leak test hopefully oring nga lang ang dahilan ng leak para wala piyesa na papalitan.

Mahirap kung panay top-up ng freon, may altis kami na '05 twice nawawalan ng lamig twice ko pinakargahan ng freon due to leak. Di ko pinacheck kung saan, until one day bumigay compressor naubusan ng langis dahil dun sa leak na din. Mas napalaki gastos ko.

Wala pa nabanggit na shop e. Dalhin ko na lang sa Tower of David. But I will try my luck sa casa, isabay ko sa change oil. Inisip ko nga outside the casa na lang change oil ko e kakatapos lang ng warranty ng auto ko.

That's the best thing you do, if casa honor their warranty sa pag gawa nila ng AC mo before, then let them do it sabay na rin change oil.
if they don;t honor it, get it done by outside shop that can do the change oil & check auxiliary fan. If fan is working, then just top up the freon
first. From there on, time how long it loose the coldness. Pag na wala uli ang lamig, go look for a good & reputable AC shop. If they tell you to change
the expansion valve, make sure they change the dryer as well. Dapat sabay pinapalitan yan.

Lastly, if they charge you 9K for the AC fix, run away immediately and go to any appliance store. A 3/4 hp window type aircon cost only 8K.
Yun ang pakabit mo sa kotse, surely lalamigin ka na ng husto. :foryou:

Freon lang kaya? But then if the AC is losing freon then there's still a problem somewhere

I brought my car to the casa na. They replaced the aircon filter but they said my ac will perform better if they can do cleaning but it costs 5k My AC has not been cleaned since I bought it in 2010. Should I have it done?

Try Denso. Kalahati ata presyo compared to casa. Same din naman ginagawa. Pwede pang panoorin.

Ibaba daw kasi buong dash e. So I should have it cleaned na talaga kasi 3 yrs na e Mahal naman ng AC cleaning. I thought it costs a little over 1k lang sa labas.

2 days daw gagawin sa casa.
