How can I make my Alpina B7 xDrive air conditioner 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 Alpina B7 xDrive A/C?

Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.

What causes A/C system leaks?

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 Alpina B7 xDrive’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.

Does my Alpina B7 xDrive A/C run on 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 Alpina B7 xDrive.

What can cause the A/C in my Alpina B7 xDrive to smell like vinegar?

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 Alpina B7 xDrive to produce a vinegary odor.

What is causing my Alpina B7 xDrive’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 Alpina B7 xDrive may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

Other BMW Alpina B7 xDrive A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only BMW Alpina B7 xDrive A/C problem you may encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system.
