How can I make my Sprinter 2500 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 is my Sprinter 2500 A/C blowing hot air?

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?

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 Sprinter 2500’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.

Does my Sprinter 2500 A/C run on gas?

Your Sprinter 2500’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 Sprinter 2500 smell like vinegar?

If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Sprinter 2500 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.

Why does my Sprinter 2500’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 Sprinter 2500’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

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 it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2015 Mercedes-Benz. Bring your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 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 we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Sprinter 2500

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500, we’ll also do 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. 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 the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 A/C recharges.

Common Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. 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 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500? 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 Sprinter 2500 — without all the sweat puddles!
