Malamig initially then hindi namemaintain. It could be the condenser fan. Usually when you start your vehicle the condenser is cool. But once the ac is working the heat absorbed by the condenser must be dissipated by the fan/s.

If you start your vehicle. Switch on the ac to maximum, the fans should be spinning.

Age of your vehicle?

My advice, dalhin mo sa isang Aircon Shop, have it checked by their a/c technician. Libre naman ang check up at estimate. A good a/c technician can determine what is faulty with your Auto A/C System just initially looking and observing in a test gauge. Then, if you decide to have it service by them, i-observe mo nalang ang trabaho nila kung maayos at maingat sa paggawa. At kung umokey na A/C system ng car mo. Give us some feedback, so we may all know(tsikoteer members), if the A/C Shop is good in their service.

To be honest with you, I don't have any experiences with their services. But somehow I read somewhere here in the forum in some of our members praises their shop services in auto a/c. Open ba shop nila even on sundays?

Anyway, just give us some feedback of the results.

if your evaporator is not factory anymore, my guess is, they put in the in-correct one. (the correct one costs 2-3 times the cost of the incorrect one.)
i had similar problem with my sentra. the original evaporator sprung a leak, and someone had it replaced.
at first, malamig. then, the air flow would get less and less.
i traced it to incorrect evaporator. the wrong one they put in, would ice up after a few minutes and prevent air from flowing thru.
putting in the correct one, solved the problem.

puede rin, low on freon ang aircon.

Hi patulong naman po ako sa problema sa AC ng civic 07 ko.

Pinagawa ko sya last week tapos may nakitang leak. Nilagyan ulit ng freon saka inayos yung part na may leak at nalinis na din yung parts ng AC. Nung dinrive ko pauwi okay naman, malamig na ulet.

Kaso after 2 days, nawawala ulit yung lamig lalo na pag long drive. Nakita eh yung condenser fan ko di umiikot, pag tinuktok saka lang iikot kaya pinalitan yung motor. Kaya bumili ako ng replacement para sa motor. Okay na ulit sya nung dinrive ko pauwi, kaso after 2 days ulet, nawawala na naman lamig.

Pag cold start lang malamig tapos after siguro 2 hours of continuous driving mawawala na. Pag pinatay ko AC for 10 minutes tapos binuksan ko ulet lalamig ulet sya kaso siguro for 2 minutes lang tapos magiging stale ulet yung hangin, amoy kulob pa yung nalabas. Ano kaya problema ng AC ko? Bukas ibabalik ko dun sa pinagpagawaan ko kaso wala na ko tiwala dun eh lol

[rodetor]

Naayos yun leak. Nilinis yung A/C, alin dun? Evaporator? Kung ok pa Thermal Expansion Valve (TXV) sa evaporator. Bago ba kargahan ng freon uli, nai-vacuum ba nila ang A/C system mo kahit 30mins.? Basta nag-open ng system sa A/C, it needs to be vacuum, to suck out moisture and air. Kung hindi, hindi lalamig o sasablay talaga ang lamig. Kasi yun minsan ang iniikot ng compressor kapag umikot yung part ng air sa system line at hindi freon. And kadalasan rin kailangan magpalit talaga ng receiver drier.

Yup yung evaporator yung nilinis nila parang binabad lang sa tubig. Yung sa vacuum di ako sigurado kung ginawa nila eh. Ano pa kaya possible na sira non,mejo asar na ko mahigit 10k na nagastos ko dun di man lang tumagal ng 1 week yung ayos ng AC lol

The condenser fan doesnt switch on until the engine is fully warmed up. Some engines dont warm up until 3-5 minutes. Baka nag palit eh hindi naman pala yun condenser fan.

Bago pa palitan yung motor ng condenser fan ganun na problem, diba nasira ulet AC ko after marepair yung leak, ang naging problem po non parehas sa problem nya ngayon. Lalamig lang sya for a few minutes tapos wala na. Akala ko magiging okay na pag napalitan yung condenser fan pero di pa din. Saka naobserbahan ko mabilis naman yung ikot ng fan ngayon kasi before mabagal talaga ikot tapos nung tinuktok lang saka bumilis. Denso pala yung brand na pinalit sa motor ng fan

Dapat pressure wash ang trabaho ginawa sa paglinis sa evaporator mo. Did they made a pressure check before and after on your A/C system? Sa pag-check ng pressure gamit ang test gauge, mas malalaman ng A/C Technician kung ano po problem ng A/C system mo, kung marunong gumamit sila ng Test Gauge, aside on Visual Inspection. Bakit naman inabot ng P10k gastos?

You are describing the radiator fan, that doesn't switch on until fully warm up. Fully Warm up or not, the engine, once you decided to turn on your A/C, normally both fans must come on.

Parang ginamitan lang nila ng pressure check nung tiningnan nila kung may refrigerant pa yung sasakyan. Umabot po ng 6k+ yung sa motor ng condenser fan, tapos nung unang punta ko nasa 3500 yung singil sakin sa pagrepair ng leak, refill ng freon, saka linis. Rip-off ba? wala kasi ako alam sa aircon repair, nung nagtanong naman ako sa iba ng price ng motor ng condenser fan ganun din qinuote sakin

[rodetor]

Rip-off nga. May warranty sila ba na ini-issue sa job work nila at sa parts binili mo? May resibo ba?

Some cars have only one fan.

Yup 3 months warranty po. Mga magkano kaya aabutin po yun kung sa iba ko pinagawa?

Sa pag-vacuum, may machine na ginagamit, halos size of a small welding machine, mga ganun. Yung mga remaining old freon, air at moisture, tatanggalin, before kargahan ng new freon.
