We know Chevrolet vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C systems. Steer your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban 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. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

R2500 Suburban A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban 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. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C problem you may encounter. 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1990 Chevrolet R2500 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your R2500 Suburban’s A/C!

Questions About 1990 Chevrolet R2500 Suburban A/C Systems

  • How can I make my R2500 Suburban 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 R2500 Suburban 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 R2500 Suburban's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my R2500 Suburban use gasoline? 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 R2500 Suburban.
  • Why does my R2500 Suburban have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your R2500 Suburban smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my R2500 Suburban’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your R2500 Suburban’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
