A/C Repair Service for Your Nissan 200SX

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Nissan 200SX A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Nissan vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1987 Nissan A/C systems. Steer your Nissan 200SX to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1987 Nissan 200SX A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. 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.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Nissan 200SX A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

200SX A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Nissan 200SX, 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). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Nissan's recommendations. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system 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 1987 Nissan 200SX A/C recharges.

Other Nissan 200SX A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Nissan 200SX A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 1987 Nissan 200SX? 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 200SX — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1987 Nissan 200SX A/C Systems

  • Can I make my 200SX 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 200SX A/C put out warm 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 200SX’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does the A/C in my 200SX rely on gas?  The air conditioning system in your 200SX does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • My 200SX’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your 200SX 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 200SX’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 200SX’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
  • Where can I get my 200SX’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care has decades of experience inspecting and repairing 200SX air conditioning systems. Schedule an A/C repair appointment at one of our locations near you today.
