Jaguar XKR A/C Repair

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. “Who can fix my Jaguar XKR A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Jaguar vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2011 Jaguar XKR A/C systems. Steer your Jaguar XKR to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2011 Jaguar XKR’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Jaguar XKR A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

XKR A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2011 Jaguar XKR A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Jaguar’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2011 Jaguar XKR A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Jaguar XKR A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Jaguar XKR A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also include 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 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 2011 Jaguar XKR? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 XKR.

2011 Jaguar XKR A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my XKR 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.
  • Why do I get hot air from my XKR A/C? 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your XKR’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 the A/C in my XKR use gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your XKR.
  • What can cause the A/C in my XKR to smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your XKR 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 XKR’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your XKR’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
