How do I make my 330i GT xDrive air conditioning colder?

Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.

Why do I get hot air from my 330i GT xDrive A/C?

An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.

What can cause an A/C system leak?

To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your 330i GT xDrive’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.

Does running the A/C in my 330i GT xDrive use gasoline?

330i GT xDrive 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.

Why does my 330i GT xDrive have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C?

It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your 330i GT xDrive to produce a vinegary odor.

Why does my 330i GT xDrive’s A/C only work when the car is moving?

There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your 330i GT xDrive may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

Steer your BMW 330i GT xDrive to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2017 BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

330i GT xDrive A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2017 BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll use BMW’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2017 BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential BMW 330i GT xDrive A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2017 BMW 330i GT xDrive? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your 330i GT xDrive’s A/C!
