Jaguar XJR A/C Repair

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Jaguar XJR A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know our way around Jaguar vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2001 Jaguar A/C systems. Steer your Jaguar XJR to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2001 Jaguar XJR A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Jaguar XJR 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.

XJR A/C Recharge

While your 2001 Jaguar XJR’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Jaguar's recommendations. 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 all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2001 Jaguar XJR A/C recharges.

Other Jaguar XJR A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Jaguar XJR A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. 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. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. And smelly A/C in a 2001 Jaguar XJR? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 XJR — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2001 Jaguar XJR A/C Systems

  • How do I make my XJR 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 XJR A/C put out warm air? 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? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your XJR’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Is my XJR A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your XJR 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 XJR’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your XJR 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 XJR’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your XJR’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.
