A/C Repair Service for Your Mazda RX-7

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. “Who can fix my Mazda RX-7 A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Mazda vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1989 Mazda RX-7 A/C systems. Steer your Mazda RX-7 to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1989 Mazda RX-7’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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mazda RX-7 A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Mazda RX-7

Let's say we repair your 1989 Mazda RX-7 A/C system. We will also perform 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. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Mazda's recommendations. 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. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1989 Mazda RX-7 A/C recharges.

Other Mazda RX-7 A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mazda RX-7 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 1989 Mazda RX-7? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your RX-7’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1989 Mazda RX-7 A/C Systems

  • Can I make my RX-7 air conditioner 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 RX-7 A/C? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 RX-7's A/C system.
  • Does my RX-7 A/C run on 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 RX-7.
  • Why does the A/C in my RX-7 smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your RX-7 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 RX-7’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 RX-7’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
