And as long as it's a wash, I'm gonna pick the option that keeps me comfy during the summer. Originally Posted by wheelsupI think I still have a can or two in the garage....

Put off the pain.... 8,822 posts, read 14,139,459 timesA new report has revealed which cars cost most when their air-conditioning systems go wrong. An estimated half-a-million air-conditioning systems fail each year and - with an average repair cost of £445.60 - it means that fixing the systems costs an annual £220 million. The car that costs the most to put right, according to the survey by Warranty Direct, is the Volkswagen Sharan S TDI, which costs, on average, £1,578.93 when its air-conditioning fails. Second most expensive to repair is the Honda FR-V Sport, at £1,348.26, followed by the Toyota Land Cruiser at £1,294.27 and the Porsche Boxster S at £1,285.38, said Warranty Direct. Seat's Alhambra and the old-model Ford Galaxy are also among the dearest to repair, although the top 10 also includes executive models and sports cars, all of which produced garage bills topping £1,000. "Air-conditioning units are one of the most expensive parts of a car to fix, because the systems are often very complex," says Warranty Direct's Duncan McClure Fisher.

"It's not just the cost of parts that motorists have to shell out when things go wrong; the labour costs can be very high simply because it's not easy to get to a car's air-con system to fix it." Air-conditioning failures represent 1.65 per cent of all breakdowns recorded by Warranty Direct.

If you are an honest car mechanic, that happens to work in an air conditioning shop, that does the right thing, then this article doesSo there's no reason to send me flaming e-mails. In my area of the United States automotive air conditioning has become a big business. Motorists use the system nine months out of the year in south Florida. Many specialized repair shops have sprung up to capitalize on the abundant amount of air-conditioning jobs available. I have run across shops using extreme heat and humidity as leverage against car owners. No matter what the situation is or how hot it's outside, you have the right to ask questions and see the failed parts. they say you need a compressor replacement ask them what's wrong with it. Ask if any Freon is still in the system. If the answer is the Freon has leaked out then a test charge should have been installed to properly diagnose aIf the answer is yes there is still Freon present in the system, then ask the shop if they connected gauges and what the pressure readings were.

Getting specific about the pressure readings on the low and high sides is key in determining failed components. Low side pressure should be around 35 to 45 psi with the compressor engaged.The high side pressure will vary with the outside temperature and the kind of system installed on the vehicle but regardless it should have readings of over 150 psi withIf a compressor fails internally but engages a common symptom is lots of noise. scenario of a compressor failure is certainly a possibility. this is one component that experiences a lot of stress. So how long will an AC compressor last? An estimate and my opinion based on experience is car air conditioning compressors last about 100,000 miles more or less. I have another article on this site that you can view about what I consider to be the most common car air conditioning repairs. After turning wrenches for more than 25 years, what I see most often is that the Freon will leak out of the system.

It continues until the pressure gets so low that the compressor will not kick on. There's a lot of sealing O-rings and threaded connections in an automotive air conditioning application. These can loosen up and start to move over time, wearing away at the rubber O-rings. system does not hold that much total Freon and even a small leak will cause the system to be inoperative after a while. automotive consumers are approached by a repair shop representative with a number or cost of the repairs. The shop is looking to keep it simple and may be prompting you for a yes or no answer. This is when we need to start asking questions. Answers to your automotive questions that don’t seem to make sense or raise doubt should be researched. in doubt take the vehicle to another location for a second opinion. recommended you do not inform the second shop of the first repair I have written a lot of Diy information about this system on my other
