A/C Service for Dodge Viper

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Dodge Viper A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Dodge vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2003 Dodge. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Dodge Viper

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2003 Dodge Viper 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 any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Dodge Viper A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Viper A/C Recharge

While your 2003 Dodge Viper’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do 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. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Dodge guidelines. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, 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 2003 Dodge Viper A/C recharges.

Other Dodge Viper A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Dodge Viper A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. 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. And smelly A/C in a 2003 Dodge Viper? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Viper — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2003 Dodge Viper A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Viper 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 Viper 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.
  • 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 Viper's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my Viper use gas? Your Viper’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.
  • My Viper’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Viper to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my Viper’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 Viper may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
  • Where can I get my Viper’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care inspects and repairs Viper air conditioning systems. Book an appointment at one of our A/C repair shops near you today.
