A/C Repair Service for Your Cadillac Seville

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Cadillac Seville?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Cadillac vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1985 Cadillac. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Cadillac Seville

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1985 Cadillac Seville A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Cadillac Seville A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Seville A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1985 Cadillac Seville, 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 use Cadillac’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1985 Cadillac Seville A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Cadillac Seville A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Cadillac Seville A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 1985 Cadillac Seville? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Seville.

1985 Cadillac Seville A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my Seville 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 is my Seville A/C blowing hot 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 Seville’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Seville use gasoline? Seville 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 the A/C in my Seville smell like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your Seville to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Seville’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Seville’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
