Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. 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 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2017 Mercedes-Benz A/C systems. Bring your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your GLA45 AMG

While your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Mercedes-Benz guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your GLA45 AMG — without all the sweat puddles!

2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my GLA45 AMG 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 GLA45 AMG 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.
  • 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 GLA45 AMG's A/C system.
  • Does my GLA45 AMG A/C run on gas? GLA45 AMG 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 does it mean if the A/C in my GLA45 AMG smells like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your GLA45 AMG 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 GLA45 AMG’s A/C only work when the car is moving? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your GLA45 AMG’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
