A/C Repair Service for Your Plymouth Turismo

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Plymouth Turismo A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Plymouth vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1983 Plymouth Turismo A/C systems. Steer your Plymouth Turismo to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1983 Plymouth Turismo’s 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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Plymouth Turismo A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Turismo A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1983 Plymouth Turismo A/C system. We will also perform 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 Plymouth guidelines. 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. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1983 Plymouth Turismo A/C recharges.

Common Plymouth Turismo A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Plymouth Turismo A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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 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 Plymouth Turismo? 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 technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Turismo’s A/C!

Questions About 1983 Plymouth Turismo A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Turismo 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 Turismo 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Turismo’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does my Turismo A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Turismo 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 Turismo’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Turismo to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Turismo’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Turismo may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
