We know our way around Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2005 Mercedes-Benz. Steer your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2005 Mercedes-Benz S55 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.” What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG

Let's say we repair your 2005 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG A/C system. We will also perform 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 use Mercedes-Benz’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2005 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG A/C recharges.

Common Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG 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. 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2005 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 S55 AMG — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2005 Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG A/C Systems

  • How do I make my S55 AMG air conditioning 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 is my S55 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.
  • 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 S55 AMG's A/C system.
  • Does the A/C in my S55 AMG rely on gas? Your S55 AMG’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • Why does the A/C in my S55 AMG smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your S55 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 S55 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 S55 AMG’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
