A/C Repair Service for Your Mazda MX-5 Miata

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Mazda vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2017 Mazda A/C systems. Bring your Mazda MX-5 Miata to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata 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 Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

MX-5 Miata A/C Recharge

While your 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata’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 use Mazda’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you're ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C recharges.

Common Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. 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 you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 MX-5 Miata — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata A/C Systems

  • How do I make my MX-5 Miata air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my MX-5 Miata A/C blowing hot 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your MX-5 Miata's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my MX-5 Miata use gas?  The air conditioning system in your MX-5 Miata 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 can cause the A/C in my MX-5 Miata to smell 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 MX-5 Miata to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why won’t my MX-5 Miata’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your MX-5 Miata is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
