A/C Service for Ford F-350 Super Duty

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. “Who can fix my Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Ford vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2005 Ford A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Ford F-350 Super Duty

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Recharge the A/C in Your F-350 Super Duty

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty, 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 Ford guidelines. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C problem you may encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your F-350 Super Duty — without all the sweat puddles!

2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my F-350 Super Duty air conditioner 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 F-350 Super Duty 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your F-350 Super Duty’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 running the A/C in my F-350 Super Duty use gasoline?  The air conditioning system in your F-350 Super Duty 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.
  • What can cause the A/C in my F-350 Super Duty 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 F-350 Super Duty to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my F-350 Super Duty’s A/C only work when the car is moving? Damaged or worn components in your F-350 Super Duty’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.
