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. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my Lexus RX400h A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Lexus vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2006 Lexus. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Lexus RX400h
In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2006 Lexus RX400h 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." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Lexus RX400h A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.
While your 2006 Lexus RX400h’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Lexus guidelines. 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 2006 Lexus RX400h A/C recharges.
Hot air is a common Lexus RX400h A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also include 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 be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2006 Lexus RX400h? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your RX400h.
