BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C Repair

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know BMW vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C systems. Steer your BMW ActiveHybrid 3 to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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 ActiveHybrid 3 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

ActiveHybrid 3 A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 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. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C Problems

Hot air is a common BMW ActiveHybrid 3 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your ActiveHybrid 3’s A/C!

Questions About 2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 3 A/C Systems

  • Can I make my ActiveHybrid 3 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.
  • What’s making my ActiveHybrid 3 A/C put out warm 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.
  • 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 ActiveHybrid 3’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Is my ActiveHybrid 3 A/C powered by gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your ActiveHybrid 3.
  • Why does my ActiveHybrid 3 have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your ActiveHybrid 3 smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my ActiveHybrid 3’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your ActiveHybrid 3’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
