BMW 328i A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my BMW 328i A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know BMW vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2015 BMW A/C systems. Steer your BMW 328i to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2015 BMW 328i’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. 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 BMW 328i A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Recharge the A/C in Your 328i

Let's say we repair your 2015 BMW 328i 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 BMW’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2015 BMW 328i A/C recharges.

Common BMW 328i A/C Problems

Hot air is a common BMW 328i A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2015 BMW 328i? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your 328i — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2015 BMW 328i A/C Systems

  • Can I make my 328i air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my 328i A/C blowing hot air? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your 328i's A/C system.
  • Does the A/C in my 328i rely on gas?  The air conditioning system in your 328i does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • My 328i’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your 328i to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my 328i’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your 328i may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
  • Where can I get my 328i’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care inspects and repairs 328i air conditioning systems. Book an appointment at one of our A/C repair shops near you today.
