Air Conditioning (A/C) is now standard on almost all new cars, but drivers are just realising that such systems require regular maintenance like all other parts of a modern vehicle.
A/C systems will tend to lose refrigerant over time through leaks in hoses and general wear and tear. Over time this will cause deterioration in performance, but more importantly, more serious problems can occur, and and air or moisture may enter the system.
The consequences could include:
- Poorer fuel economy as the system works harder to maintain temperature required
- Internal corrosion caused by air or moisture reacting with refrigerant
- Component or system failure
