A/C Service for Lexus RX450h

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Lexus RX450h?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Lexus vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2010 Lexus A/C systems. Bring your Lexus RX450h to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2010 Lexus RX450h A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. 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 Lexus RX450h A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Lexus RX450h

While your 2010 Lexus RX450h’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. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Lexus'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 good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2010 Lexus RX450h A/C recharges.

Other Lexus RX450h A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Lexus RX450h A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 2010 Lexus RX450h? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your RX450h — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2010 Lexus RX450h A/C Systems

  • How do I make my RX450h air conditioning colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • What’s making my RX450h 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your RX450h’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.
  • Is my RX450h A/C powered by 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 RX450h.
  • My RX450h’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your RX450h 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.
  • Why does my RX450h’s A/C only work when the car is moving? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your RX450h is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
