How can I make my Alpina B7L xDrive air conditioner colder?

For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.

What’s making my Alpina B7L xDrive A/C put out warm air?

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?

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 Alpina B7L xDrive's A/C system.

Does the A/C in my Alpina B7L xDrive rely on gas?

Alpina B7L xDrive air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.

Why does my Alpina B7L xDrive have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C?

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 B7L xDrive to produce a vinegary odor.

Why does my Alpina B7L xDrive’s A/C only work when the car is moving?

There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Alpina B7L xDrive may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

A/C Service for BMW Alpina B7L xDrive

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. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my BMW Alpina B7L xDrive A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know BMW vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2015 BMW A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your BMW Alpina B7L xDrive

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2015 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called 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 B7L xDrive A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Alpina B7L xDrive A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2015 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive A/C system. We will also perform 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. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2015 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting BMW Alpina B7L xDrive A/C Problems
