A/C Service for Cadillac XTS

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Cadillac XTS A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Cadillac vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2018 Cadillac A/C systems. Bring your Cadillac XTS to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2018 Cadillac XTS’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Cadillac XTS A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

XTS A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2018 Cadillac XTS, 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). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Cadillac's recommendations. 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 2018 Cadillac XTS A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Cadillac XTS A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Cadillac XTS A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2018 Cadillac XTS? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your XTS — without all the sweat puddles!

2018 Cadillac XTS A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my XTS 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.
  • What’s making my XTS A/C put out warm 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 causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your XTS’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.
  • Is my XTS A/C powered by 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 XTS.
  • My XTS’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 XTS creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my XTS’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 XTS’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
