Hello cheelam,

I recently went and service my air cond because it wasn't cold. It was cold during the early mornings and late evenings, but hot during the afternoon (just fan, no air cond).

So i had it service because i think it's been a long time since my last service. The air cond guy told me that i have to clean the air filter (i think) and pump gas, and also there was some leakage at the cooling coil, and in order to save money for me (because i was doing other repairs to other parts too), he suggested to do 'welding'.

When i got back the car, it was night time hence the air cond was working. but after that, it was still hot, although cooler than before. About a month later, i sent the car back to the same workshop.

This time, another air cond guy (same workshop) came and said if cooling coil got problem, he will actually suggest to CHANGE the whole thing, instead of welding. Coz he checked the air cond gas and it was running low. He said there's only two problems. 1. The guy before didnt pump enough gas. 2. the cooling coil have to change.

This guy pump the air cond gas for me and the air cond was cold again. However, as I was driving home (25km) during the jam, I realize the car temperature is higher than normal, although still within the safe range. but it was never this high before. Can it be the cooling coil problem? Can this affect the car temperature?

My radiator is fine, i just cleaned/service the radiator, and seems like my compressor is working fine too.

I'm driving a old Toyota Camry, 1994 version. How much is it to change the cooling coil at your workshop?

Thanks

The cooling coil itself is hardly affecting your car temperature. Since you mentioned your radiator is good condition, you'd check if your air-cond fan is working well.

pm you the price

Hi cheelam,
I plan to have my wira air cond checked at your place this Saturday morning. What time your shop open? My car air cond started to give problem since august where it only blows warm air. To keep the story short, I've changed the new condenser,cooling coil,expension valve,drier,etc except compressor in 2 months time. But the problem still persist. Now fed up already and seek for the real expert assistance. Thanks.

Hi~ We open from Mon-Sat (9am - 7pm).

hmm.gif Sounds like you have almost changed the air-cond parts. Based on your description, most probably there is gas leakage somewhere of your car air-cond system. This has to be re-confirm by checking on your current system.
Welcomed to visit us to identify your air-cond system condition.

How long have you serviced/cleaned your air-cond internal parts (e.g.blower, coil, ...)?
Suspect dirt happens inside your air-cond system and doing a internal service/cleaning would solve this.
Kindly inform us your car model & year if you need the related quotation.

It's not necessary to change the compressor oil if the air-cond condition is good and cool.
Yet, you'd add compressor oil (act as a lubricant) to your compressor to enhance its work efficiency when the air-cond is good and cool.
Sometimes, we'd advise drivers to add it when the compressor has been used more than two years or the compressor makes some noises when running.

Doubt that air-cond gas leakage happened to your system.
Have to check where the leakage is, then advise on the solution & price.

There are mainly 3 reasons contributing to your problem:
1. Insufficient of a/c gas due to leakage (have to check where the leakage place is)
2. Not-good-condition of a/c parts (e.g. compressor, blower...)
3. Not serviced > 2 years (e.g. dust/dirt has decreased the air-cond fan speed)

For replacing your Viva cooling coil, removing dashboard is necessary. one unit of valve is sufficient.
