A/C Repair Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GL350

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. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mercedes-Benz GL350?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2011 Mercedes-Benz A/C systems. Bring your Mercedes-Benz GL350 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2011 Mercedes-Benz GL350’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mercedes-Benz GL350 A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

GL350 A/C Recharge

While your 2011 Mercedes-Benz GL350’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 Mercedes-Benz's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2011 Mercedes-Benz GL350 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mercedes-Benz GL350 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mercedes-Benz GL350 A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2011 Mercedes-Benz GL350? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your GL350 — without all the sweat puddles!

2011 Mercedes-Benz GL350 A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my GL350 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.
  • What’s making my GL350 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 GL350's A/C system.
  • Is my GL350 A/C powered by gas? GL350 air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.
  • What can cause the A/C in my GL350 to smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your GL350 to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why won’t my GL350’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 GL350 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
