A/C Service for Mercedes-Benz S600

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mercedes-Benz S600?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2011 Mercedes-Benz A/C systems. Bring your Mercedes-Benz S600 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2011 Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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 S600 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.

Recharge the A/C in Your S600

Let's say we repair your 2011 Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C system. We will also perform 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 after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2011 Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C recharges.

Common Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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 2011 Mercedes-Benz S600? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 S600 — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2011 Mercedes-Benz S600 A/C Systems

  • Can I make my S600 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.
  • What’s making my S600 A/C put out warm 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? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your S600’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my S600 A/C use 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 S600.
  • Why does the A/C in my S600 smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your S600 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 S600’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 S600’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
