Everything Your Car AC Needs
AC Recharge
Low refrigerant is the number one cause of warm air from your vents. We service both R-134a (most vehicles through 2016) and Opteon XL10 R-1234yf (most vehicles 2017 and newer) systems, and we always perform a full UV dye leak check before adding refrigerant - because simply topping off without finding the leak is a temporary fix that will leave you hot again within weeks. Our Robinair recovery machine evacuates the old refrigerant, removes moisture, and recharges to the exact manufacturer specification for your vehicle.
- R-134a and Opteon XL10 R-1234yf refrigerant service
- UV dye and electronic leak detection before recharge
- Full system evacuation to remove moisture and contaminants
- Recharge to manufacturer specification - not just until it feels cold
- Vent temperature test - most vehicles should reach 38-45 degrees at center vent
- BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Range Rover, Tesla, and Rivian compatible
- Same-day service available
AC Compressor Repair
The compressor is the heart of your AC system. In European and luxury vehicles, compressors are engineered to tighter tolerances and require OEM-specification replacement units and PAG oil grades specific to the manufacturer. A failing compressor sheds metal debris throughout the entire system - in a BMW or Mercedes-Benz, this contamination can damage the expansion valve and evaporator, turning a $500 repair into a $2,200 system overhaul if not addressed promptly. We source the correct unit for your vehicle and flush the system completely before recharging.
- OEM-specification compressor replacement - Delphi, Denso, and manufacturer-equivalent
- BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Range Rover, and Porsche specialists
- Correct PAG oil grade for your specific vehicle
- Full system flush to remove metal debris before recharge
- Receiver/dryer and expansion valve inspection included
- R-1234yf recharge to manufacturer specification
AC Leak Detection
If your refrigerant is low, you have a leak. We use both UV dye testing and electronic leak detectors to find leaks at O-rings, hoses, the condenser, evaporator core, and compressor shaft seal - then repair the source before recharging.
- Electronic refrigerant leak detection
- UV dye leak detection
- O-ring and seal replacement
- AC hose and line repair
- Pressure testing after repair
Condenser Repair
The condenser sits in front of the radiator and is exposed to road debris, restricted airflow, cooling-fan concerns, and physical damage. When airflow is limited at idle, system pressure can rise and cooling can become weak or intermittent. Debris on the fins reduces heat transfer, while road damage can create a refrigerant leak. A common symptom is AC that cools while moving but becomes warm in traffic or at a stop.
- Condenser cleaning and fin straightening
- Condenser replacement for damaged units
- Condenser fan motor replacement
- Condenser fan relay and fuse diagnosis
- Refrigerant recharge after condenser repair
AC Diagnostic
Modern luxury and electric vehicles can use dual-zone or tri-zone controls, multiple evaporators, electronic expansion valves, heat-pump systems, and CAN-bus integration. A generic inspection can miss a model-specific concern. On applicable EVs, climate and thermal-management components may also affect battery-related operating conditions, so the diagnostic should follow the vehicle's service information. The result is a written report with clear, prioritised repair options.
- High and low side pressure testing with Robinair manifold gauges
- Dual-zone and tri-zone climate control diagnosis
- Heat pump system diagnosis for Tesla, Rivian, and European EVs
- Electronic expansion valve and variable compressor testing
- Refrigerant type verification - R-134a vs R-1234yf confirmation
- Written diagnostic report with repair options and cost estimates
AC Odor Removal
A musty or mildewy smell from the vents can indicate moisture, microbial growth, a restricted cabin filter, or drainage concerns around the evaporator area. It affects the cabin environment in Tesla, BMW, Porsche, Range Rover, and other vehicles. We assess the source rather than masking the odour, then recommend the appropriate cleaning, filter, drainage, or inspection steps.
- Evaporator core cleaning and professional antimicrobial treatment
- OEM-equivalent cabin air filter replacement
- Evaporator drain line clearing - critical in desert climates
- Blend door actuator inspection
- Cabin air quality test after treatment
- BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Range Rover, and Tesla compatible
