I'm writing this after standing many hours in AC garages during the past year many a time. Almost every 2 - 3 months.
Before that for an year or so I used to keep on adding refrigerant, only twice for the year then. But now the leak has gotten worst.
Last time I repaired it was not more than 1.5 months ago and still the problem is there.
Car AC system leaks refrigerant.
Then I stick to a single place to do every repair but still the leak is there. However they managed to find some tiny leak every time. And last time it was nitrogen pressurized and checked for leaks and it did not expose any leaks to the mechanics.
And I ended up spending a lot for AC repairs thinking it will be fixed but now I'm disappointed.
Its an old car, 1996 Lancer, but this is the only major problem I got. Is there anyplace you know where they will analyze the system with UV ink for checking the leaks? Or do you suspect anything, can it be the compressor?
Is it just something wrong on my end, or is there some issue with the AL digest/ email updates? I haven’t received any since April 17. Tried resetting my notification preferences and refollowing a topic, but to no avail.
Biden is looking to tax Chinese EV's 100% to level the playing field, so you want to tell me Tesla is having issues of competing and have found themselves pants down when real competition arrived.
My Toyota Aqua 2015 model has a problem of warning light of Orange Car with an exclamation mark. I tried the diagnostic kit and it didn’t detect any codes. Hybrid battery is functioning as usual during the driving. Once I cleared the sign and again it comes back.
what could be the possible reason. I changed the hybrid battery 3 months back.
