A/C Service for Dodge Sprinter 2500

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Dodge Sprinter 2500?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Dodge vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2009 Dodge A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Dodge Sprinter 2500

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Dodge Sprinter 2500 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.

Recharge the A/C in Your Sprinter 2500

Let's say we repair your 2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500 A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Dodge's recommendations. 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 2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500 A/C recharges.

Common Dodge Sprinter 2500 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Dodge Sprinter 2500 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. 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 2009 Dodge Sprinter 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. 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 Sprinter 2500.

Questions About 2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500 A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Sprinter 2500 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.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Sprinter 2500 A/C? 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.
  • 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 Sprinter 2500's A/C system.
  • Does my Sprinter 2500 A/C run on gas? Your Sprinter 2500’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Sprinter 2500 to smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your Sprinter 2500 to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Sprinter 2500’s A/C to work? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Sprinter 2500’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
