A/C Repair Service for Your Chevrolet R10 Suburban

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. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Chevrolet vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1987 Chevrolet. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Chevrolet R10 Suburban

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1987 Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Chevrolet R10 Suburban

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Chevrolet R10 Suburban, 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 Chevrolet’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1987 Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C recharges.

Common Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Chevrolet R10 Suburban 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 1987 Chevrolet R10 Suburban? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your R10 Suburban.

1987 Chevrolet R10 Suburban A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my R10 Suburban 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.
  • Why is my R10 Suburban 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.
  • 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 R10 Suburban’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does the A/C in my R10 Suburban use gas? R10 Suburban 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 R10 Suburban have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? 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 R10 Suburban to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why won’t my R10 Suburban’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your R10 Suburban may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
