These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyone have experience with their AC going weak? After less than a month of ownership it's pretty clear something is up with my AC, it blows only slightly cold air and has no real chance of keeping up with the high 80s-90s temps we get here during the summers. Am I looking at just a recharge or something more serious?

POST 2Original post

The air mix flap should be checked to make sure that's not the problem. If the comprrssor runs, the SOP is evacuating followed by a recharge and go from there. If the charge doesn't hold, a leak test will be needed.

POST 3Original post

You could do some visual inspections, such as is the front hub on the compressor clutch engaged and turning with the belt/pulley. Is the larger refrigerant return line at the compressor or the evaporator outlet cold to frosty, and is the smaller outlet line at the compressor or the small line to the expansion valve warm to hot. If you do not have service gauges and experience to use them most repair shops will toss them on and advise you of the pressures for a small fee or for free if you are a good repeat customer. You will want to know the low and high side pressure at idle and the outside temperature around the car when pressures are observed (write them down). This is always a good place to start.
