Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C Repair

We know our way around Chevrolet vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2015 Chevrolet. Steer your Chevrolet Captiva Sport to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Chevrolet Captiva Sport

Let's say we repair your 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Chevrolet guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C recharges.

Common Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems 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 you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 Captiva Sport.

Questions About 2015 Chevrolet Captiva Sport A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Captiva Sport air conditioning colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • What’s making my Captiva Sport A/C put out warm air? 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 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 Captiva Sport's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my Captiva Sport use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Captiva Sport does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • Why does the A/C in my Captiva Sport smell like vinegar? 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 Captiva Sport creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Captiva Sport’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Captiva Sport is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
