Suggest you to detect where the leakage is. Then, we'd get the solution accordingly.

hi bro cheelam,

i need some advise from u regarding my air cond situation, my car air cond (satria 1.6, 1996) actually very cold till march this year(i bought it 2nd hand on 2009) where the air flow from the a/c vent start to block after some driving around 30 minutes, i need to off the a/c for a while then turn on then it will be ok and the a/c is still very cold, then the problem will repeat again and again as long as im driving.

i go to an a/c mechanic around my area(shah alam) on april and they told me that problem came from my thermostat sensor(rm140) which i need to replace. they said i need to service(rm110+ gas rm40) the a/c becoz the sensor is attached to the cooling coil. so i just agree with the suggestion. during the servicing process they asked me to replace the valve(rm140) near the coil and the filter(seems like a tube or can)(rm70) too. so i have paid rm500 for the job.

then the blocking problem have gone but i can feel the a/c is not very cold anymore. when i ask the mechanic they say its normal and asked me to wait around 2-3 days for the a/c to be normal back. I've waited for a week and the a/c still the same and i notice it not cold at all when its hot outside on afternoon and not so cold when its not hot outside during daytime and only cold during the night.

when i go back to the mechanic, they said may be need to top up the gas abit more(from 23psi earlier to 30 psi) and i end up paying another rm40. they asked me to test it around another week. no different after a week waiting then i go back to the mechanic again to complain. then they suggest me to re service back as they suspect something may be wrong and i may end up paying more if they encounter other problem within my a/c system. i started to get fed up with their behavior and i refuse to follow their advise at that moment.

so my question now, am i being conned here? what are the advise and solution for my problem? what is the estimation on the cost to fix the problem as im still a university student where my cash flow is not as smooth as working people.

thanks.

The car air-cond system is complicated and sometimes the problem will come after one by one (especially 2nd hand or old cars). Our customers have such headaches too.

If the air-cond is still un-cold after your last gas refill, most probably gas leakage happens and needs to check where the leakage is. Then, you'd find out the proper solution & price.

If you find uncomfortable with the workshop, suggest to visit another workshop for second reference.

Try to discuss and negotiate with those workshops on the best option if you have budget concerns. Hope this suggestion helps.

Can pm me the price for full service of 2000 kembara non-dvvt ? Also, my compressor is making loud whining noise.....can it be repaired or need to change another unit ?

pm-ed done.

For your noise, it's good to have a check to identify if it need to be replaced or could be repaired.

Here comes my late reply since I went to your shop repair the aircond last Saturday...... Since my car aircond never go thru any service besides than top up the gas, so that I'm decided to perform full aircond service which is required to do dashboard dismantle and service the whole set aircond.....

After 6 and the half years my Myvi on the road, I get shocked by the dust accumulated inside the cooling coil part. By the way, due to my budget constraint, they still willing to perform what they can do for me and did it properly.... The things I changed during this service are Aircond Compressor, Condenser, Expansion Valve, High Pressure hot pipe, cooling coil which I never expect need to change and cabin filter which I bought from somewhere else and bring to there for installations...

After around 6 hours of hard work by them, my aircond is back to the new stock car condition and it does cost me around RM1900..... But all these money is worth to spend...... Thumbs up with their services.....

They do explain a lot about the aircond system inside our car and provides a lot of aircond service tips to make the lifespan of aircond system longer...

When they dismantle my dashboard and front bumper, they do saw a lot of screw is missing.... After the service complete, they just add-on the screw which is already missing and place back to it.... It does makes my car dashboard didn't got a lot of noise like the previous one anymore......

Once they changing the another parts, they saw my radiator is full of rusted water and they found out my car radiator piping is already harden due to not service regularly... They do suggest me to change all the piping and perform full radiator flush which I think it is necessary later on....

They found out one of my car headlight reflector dropped inside the headlight and then they try to remove for me, but I asked them try to reinstall for me and they does... Without extra charge..... They do tighten my car alarm siren for me since it always faced down.....

After all, thumbs up to your service team.....

Just need to find a time go back to ur shop and do checking since now the funny voice comes up again.......

Just share this to our team. Our pleasure to read this!
Thank you so much on your compliment! We'll keep it up

Please find your convenient time to visit us for the next check. Hear from you soon!

Hi, i'm driving a proton savvy (2005).. recently, in my engine bay got some rattling noise when the compressor working.. was thinking of aircond pulley, but my savoc friend told me its the compressor.. can i come to your shop to do checkup first? Will drop by on friday.. hopefully just service.. 7 year old aircond that did not yet give problem until recently.. aircond ok but noisy..

Sure, it's good to look at your system and identify out the proper solution!
See you this Friday!

Hey bro I have two proton wira at home. One is sedan n the other one is the special edition.
Both my Wira got same problem. When the car is moving the air cond is cold but when I stay stationary for some time in the afternoon it gets warm. The air won't b cold. I opened Bonney n check..the fan is moving. Any ideas bro?

pm me boss aircond full service for my sr4 92...

Since you've checked the fan, most possibly there are 3 main reasons contributing to your problem:
1. Insufficient of a/c gas due to leakage (have to check where the leakage place is)
2. Malfunctioning of a/c parts (e.g. compressor,...)
3. not serviced for more than 2 years

Yet, it's good to get a mechanic check on your current system to confirm the issue.

done

bro,
do we need to service our car a/c?
I had a recon japanese car..year make 05. My a/c is still running well. My freind said that we do not have to service/ top up gas as long as the a/c is cold. Iziit true?
I am worried by the time the a/c is not cold, major parts like a/c comp, cooling coil need to be replace (and the cost will kill me).
What should I do? Do I need to send my a/c for regular check up? and how much do u guys charge? thanks..

Based on our experience, it's good to keep a constant maintenance on your car air-cond in order to prolong its age and improve its performance. Just like constantly changing your car engine oil, a basic maintenance to your car air-cond is necessary too.

Without regularly taking care of the machine, as you stated, it'll merge a big major problem as time goes longer.

The charges on a basic a/c service will be varied based on car models. Mind telling your car model & years for accurate quotation?

Hi, my car is almost 3 years old, do i need to perform an ac service? Can u pm the price for it, ford focus 2.0 2009 model, thanks

It's advisable to conduct air-cond service for every 2 years.
Just like car servicing, a regular maintenance is important to take care of the machine.

PM you the respective price

bro, its a Toyota Caldina ZT year 2005. Quote me price for basic a/c service..
