    it looks like the evaporator installed some 2.5 years ago may need replacement again ... freon leak, a very very tiny leak ... it takes a few weeks to need refill

    Any update on your leak? Probably its not the evaporator. O ring? Condenser?

    The car is at dealer shop for accident repair. The a/c leak problem will be fixed afterward.

    sorry to hear that. Do you know a good shop besides maxi air. My e46 just suddenly lose its ac after leaving it for 1 week for a out of town trip. Just replaced the evap 3 yrs ago.went to an ac shop and hooked it to the gauge but they told me its a compressor problem since I have freon charge and the low side is higher than the high side. Maybe have a second opinion before i replace the compressor..I'm in Cavite pala.Thanks in advance

    This is where I had my car's AC repaired back in 2002. It had no problems until I sold it in 2012. Jomar was also the guy who worked on it. Wow. He's been working there for almost 15 yrs

    If your nearby Imus, I have my Old school advie checked in "JCI" near Robinson's Imus. The owner Val is also approachable. His shop is just infront of Caltex and a short walk to Robinson Imus.

    Maxicon in President Ave. They are use to diagnose on that kind of trouble specially in BMW.

    Check the freon intake valve just like you are checking the tire valve if there is a leak, its the same. Putting some saliva or soap bubbles can do.
