When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Oldsmobile vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1983 Oldsmobile. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 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 we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme A/C system to 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.

A/C Recharge for Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme

Let's say we repair your 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 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 Oldsmobile’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme A/C recharges.

Common Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. 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. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Cutlass Supreme — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Cutlass Supreme air conditioner colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my Cutlass Supreme 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 causes A/C system leaks? 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 Supreme's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Cutlass Supreme use gasoline? 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 Supreme.
  • Why does the A/C in my Cutlass Supreme smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your Cutlass Supreme 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 won’t my Cutlass Supreme’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? Damaged or worn components in your Cutlass Supreme’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
