A/C Service for Renault Alliance

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. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Renault Alliance A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know our way around Renault vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1985 Renault Alliance A/C systems. Bring your Renault Alliance to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1985 Renault Alliance’s 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." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Renault Alliance A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Alliance A/C Recharge

While your 1985 Renault Alliance’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Renault guidelines. 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 good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1985 Renault Alliance A/C recharges.

Common Renault Alliance A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Renault Alliance A/C problem you may 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1985 Renault Alliance? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Alliance’s A/C!

Questions About 1985 Renault Alliance A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Alliance 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 Alliance A/C put out warm air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 Alliance’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Alliance 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 Alliance.
  • Why does the A/C in my Alliance smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your Alliance to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Alliance’s A/C to work? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Alliance’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
