Volkswagen drivers in Illinois know the value of an air conditioning system at peak performance! Is your A/C blowing out frigid air like the day you bought it? If not, we can turn the hot air cold with an A/C service performed to Volkswagen standards. Our certified technicians know just what to look for when inspecting the air conditioning system, and we can provide the maintenance or repairs needed to restore frigid air production at factory specifications. Schedule your A/C service today at Bill Jacobs Volkswagen in Naperville, IL.
The telltale signs of an A/C problem include hot air and restricted airflow from the vents on the coldest setting with the blower on full blast. Identifying the root cause of poor air conditioning begins with an inspection that assesses overall performance, symptoms, and a visual inspection of the components. A certified technician will inspect the compressor for clutch engagement, condenser for blockages, variable pressure lines’ connections, hoses for leaks, and refrigerant level. The inspection results will guide the next step in restoring specifications.
Leaking refrigerant is a common cause of faulty A/C performance. When refrigerant has leaked, more refrigerant must be installed. This often includes line/hose repair to prevent the new refrigerant from leaking. We use a computerized A/C recharge station to add the perfect amount of refrigerant needed.
The compressor pressurizes refrigerant with energy delivered from the drive belt. The compressor pulley has an internal bearing that can wear out, which often causes a screeching noise when the engine is running. We can also replace a faulty compressor if it’s worn out.
Clogged cabin air filters restrict the airflow from the HVAC system. This is a relatively easy fix as the old filter is removed and a new genuine OEM part installed with a fast turnaround.
The A/C system has electrical components with a fuse and wiring that might be the problem. We can replace blown fuses or repair wiring as needed to ensure the blower motor gets the voltage it needs to blow cold air into the cabin.
A/C service is always better sooner than later to ensure you have frigid air cooling the cabin when it’s hot outside. Volkswagen drivers in Naperville, Wheaton, Bolingbrook, Aurora, and Woodridge, IL, can schedule A/C service at the online service scheduler or by phone if preferred. Feel free to unwind in the comfortable waiting area with wi-fi, reading material, and refreshments while we complete the service.
