Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C Repair

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Alfa Romeo Stelvio?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Alfa Romeo vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2018 Alfa Romeo A/C systems. Bring your Alfa Romeo Stelvio to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Recharge the A/C in Your Stelvio

Let's say we repair your 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Alfa Romeo’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Stelvio’s A/C!

Questions About 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Stelvio air conditioner colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • What’s making my Stelvio A/C put out warm air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Stelvio’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does the A/C in my Stelvio rely on gas? Stelvio air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Stelvio to smell like vinegar? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Stelvio creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Stelvio’s A/C only work when the car is moving? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Stelvio’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
