[tiki-tiki]

help, when there is traffic during hot weather, specially at noon, the aircon stops cooling and blows hot air. It does not happen on cold weather. what could be the problem?

Low freon/refrigerant. Check for leaks.

marami dyan car aircon repair shops (e.rod, murphy). pili ka lang ng 2 shops na malapit sayo or convinient mo puntahan then pa estimate.

even if you have only a thimbleful of freon left, the nissan aircon will act as if it were functioning ok, in cool weather. but in hot weather, it will become obviously lacking. alas, some nissan models do not have the sight glass by which we can see if we have enough freon or not. the only way to find out if you indeed lack freon, is to have it measured using the aircon shop's dials.
i had the same problem a few months back. it seems, after 14 years, my aircon finally needed a re-fill. i just randomly chose a shop in banawe. ok na ulit. of course, if you have a real leak, you'll be sweating again in a week or two.

thanks dr. d, will have the aircon check this weekend. lately i have no problem since the weather is kinda cool.

You might also want to have the magnetic clutch checked. Mine had the dryer replaced and freon refilled but still had the same prob. The mech removed a spacer in the magnetic clutch and that fixed it.
