A/C Service for BMW 528i xDrive

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my BMW 528i xDrive A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know BMW vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2014 BMW 528i xDrive A/C systems. Bring your BMW 528i xDrive to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2014 BMW 528i xDrive A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your BMW 528i xDrive A/C system to 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.

A/C Recharge for BMW 528i xDrive

While your 2014 BMW 528i xDrive’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to BMW's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2014 BMW 528i xDrive A/C recharges.

Common BMW 528i xDrive A/C Problems

Hot air is a common BMW 528i xDrive A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2014 BMW 528i xDrive? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 528i xDrive — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2014 BMW 528i xDrive A/C Systems

  • How do I make my 528i 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 is my 528i xDrive A/C blowing hot air? 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? 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 528i xDrive's A/C system.
  • Is my 528i xDrive A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your 528i xDrive 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 528i xDrive’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 528i xDrive to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why won’t my 528i xDrive’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your 528i xDrive’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
  • Where can I get my 528i xDrive’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care inspects and repairs 528i xDrive air conditioning systems. Book an appointment at one of our A/C repair shops near you today.
