A/C Service for BMW ActiveHybrid 7

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my BMW ActiveHybrid 7?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with BMW vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2014 BMW A/C systems. Bring your BMW ActiveHybrid 7 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C system to see if repair work is required. 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. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

ActiveHybrid 7 A/C Recharge

While your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7’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. Then, they’ll use BMW’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C recharges.

Other BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C problem you may 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 ActiveHybrid 7’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2014 BMW ActiveHybrid 7 A/C Systems

  • How do I make my ActiveHybrid 7 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 ActiveHybrid 7 A/C? 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 can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your ActiveHybrid 7’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 ActiveHybrid 7 rely on gas? Your ActiveHybrid 7’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • My ActiveHybrid 7’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 ActiveHybrid 7 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my ActiveHybrid 7’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your ActiveHybrid 7’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.
