How do I make my Alpina B7 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 Alpina B7 xDrive 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.

How does my A/C system get a 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 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.

Why won’t my Alpina B7 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 Alpina B7 xDrive’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

Bring your BMW Alpina B7 xDrive to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2015 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive 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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your BMW Alpina B7 xDrive A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Alpina B7 xDrive A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2015 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive, we’ll also do 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per BMW guidelines. 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. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2015 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting BMW Alpina B7 xDrive A/C Problems
