How do I make my Suburban 2500 air conditioning 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 Suburban 2500 A/C put out warm air?

If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.

How does my A/C system get a leak?

Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Suburban 2500’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.

Does my Suburban 2500 A/C run on gas?

The air conditioning system in your Suburban 2500 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.

My Suburban 2500’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 Suburban 2500 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.

Why does my Suburban 2500’s A/C only work when the car is moving?

There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Suburban 2500 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

A/C Repair Service for Your Chevrolet Suburban 2500

We know Chevrolet vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Chevrolet Suburban 2500

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 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 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 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Suburban 2500

While your 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 2500’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do 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 we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Chevrolet Suburban 2500 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Chevrolet Suburban 2500 A/C problem you may encounter.

If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 2500? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter.
