A/C Service for Porsche 911

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Porsche 911 A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Porsche vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2011 Porsche 911 A/C systems. Steer your Porsche 911 to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2011 Porsche 911’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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 Porsche 911 A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Porsche 911

Let's say we repair your 2011 Porsche 911 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 Porsche’s specifications to evacuate the system. 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 ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2011 Porsche 911 A/C recharges.

Other Porsche 911 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Porsche 911 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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 2011 Porsche 911? 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 911 — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2011 Porsche 911 A/C Systems

  • How can I make my 911 air conditioner colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why do I get hot air from my 911 A/C? 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 can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your 911’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 911 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 911.
  • What can cause the A/C in my 911 to 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 911 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my 911’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 911 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
