Heating & AC Repair And Service Needed by European, Domestic, or Import Vehicle
- Refrigerant Recharge: If you are experiencing improper or no cool air blowing from the vents of your air conditioning system while the AC is running, then it might be caused by a leak in the refrigerant lines, fittings, or seals and this can make your driving very uncomfortable. The moment you notice anything unusual in the functioning of your AC then you must get in touch with us at any of our garages located in Lewisville or Argyle to get your refrigerant recharged by our certified mechanics.
- Heater Core Repair or Replacement: Whenever you come across foggy windows, a sweet smell in the cabin, inefficient heating, or coolant leaks under the dashboard of your car, then it is mostly caused by a clogged heater core that is again linked to sediment or rust buildup in the system. You can drive into our Mckinney auto shop or any of our other auto repair shop locations to get your heater core fixed or replaced, depending on the extent of the damage by our experienced technicians.
- Compressor Replacement or Repair: While driving, if you hear a clicking noise when the AC is running, or get to feel warm air coming from the vents, or the AC fails to turn on, then it indicates mechanical failure of the internal components. Besides that, the problem might be caused by electrical issues like a bad relay or clutch or due to the presence of contaminants in the refrigerant system. It is important to get your compressor inspected by a professional mechanic and it would be fixed or replaced based on the extent of damage.
- Blower Motor Repair or Replacement: At times, when driving, you might experience a completely dysfunctional AC or inconsistent airflow. Apart from that, you might also get to hear unusual noises coming from the fan when it is running. All these signs indicate something is seriously wrong with the motor of your AC system. The problems might be caused due to a range of factors from worn-out motor bearings to obstruction in the motor blades. Getting your blower motor fixed or replaced is going to solve your woes.
FAQs
How often should I recharge my car’s AC refrigerant?
Generally, the AC refrigerant must be recharged every 2-3 years or as per your need when the cooling efficiency goes down. If you’re getting your A/C repair in Texas, make sure you get the refrigerant checked often. Otherwise, you could be facing some very hot days!
Why does my AC makes a loud noise when turned on?
The loud noise from the AC can be caused due to a failing compressor, a worn-out belt, or debris in the system.
Why is my car’s AC blowing warm air?
The warm air from the AC might be caused due to low refrigerant levels, a compressor issue, or a refrigerant leak.
Why is my defroster not working?
The malfunctioning of the defroster might be caused due to a failing blower motor, low coolant levels, or a faulty thermostat.
FAQs
What makes European vehicle maintenance different from regular car service?
European vehicles are engineered with higher precision and tighter performance specs, which means they need specialized tools, fluids, and training. For example, your BMW or Audi has unique electronic systems and service intervals that many general shops just aren’t equipped to handle. At Fifth Gear, our technicians know the ins and outs of these systems – so your car runs exactly how it was designed to. You get dealership-level expertise, right here in North Fort Worth.
What are the most common European car issues we see in North Fort Worth?
We see a lot of the same problems across North Texas – oil leaks on BMWs and MINIs, electrical issues on Audis, suspension and steering wear on Mercedes, and cooling system failures on Volkswagens. The good news? Our diagnostic equipment and European-trained team can pinpoint the problem fast and fix it right the first time. Whether it’s a check-engine light or something more serious, we’ll walk you through every step, so you’re never left guessing.
