A/C Repair Service for Your Mazda 626

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mazda 626?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Mazda vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1987 Mazda. Bring your Mazda 626 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1987 Mazda 626’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mazda 626 A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

626 A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Mazda 626, 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 use Mazda’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 good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1987 Mazda 626 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mazda 626 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Mazda 626 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 1987 Mazda 626? 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 626 — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1987 Mazda 626 A/C Systems

  • Can I make my 626 air conditioner 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 626 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.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your 626’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 626 use gas?  The air conditioning system in your 626 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 does it mean if the A/C in my 626 smells like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your 626 to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why won’t my 626’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your 626 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
  • Where can I get my 626’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care has decades of experience inspecting and repairing 626 air conditioning systems. Schedule an A/C repair appointment at one of our locations near you today.
