A/C Repair Service for Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

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. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Oldsmobile vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1985 Oldsmobile. Bring your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Cutlass Ciera

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, 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 use Oldsmobile’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 all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C recharges.

Common Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. 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 Cutlass Ciera — without all the sweat puddles!

1985 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my Cutlass Ciera 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.
  • What’s making my Cutlass Ciera 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? 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 Cutlass Ciera's A/C system.
  • Does my Cutlass Ciera A/C run on 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 Cutlass Ciera.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my Cutlass Ciera smells like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your Cutlass Ciera to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Cutlass Ciera’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 Cutlass Ciera’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
